To see for an eternity uninterrupted,

It is a breath of life that we don’t often see

Follow the dark curvaceous surface of the ocean blue

To the point where it collides with the clear horizon

Such a rare and peaceful collision- unlike most in reality,

As if they belong together,

I think it may just be a deception of the eye

But dare I swim to the edge of the world? Stick out my hand and touch it.

Experience the harmony so few truly appreciate

It seems I may spend a lifetime,

dwelling over my place between the beach and the horizon

the deep, cool, salty sea

and the burned out stars another lifetime away.

It is my purpose in-between, at which I marvel

I breathe in the sweet intoxicating ocean breeze,

In it I discover a release that is forgotten each moment my mind is able to rationalize

But as long as I take even an instant,

to resist it,

And remember the breath

Of the sweet serenity

found in the salty sea-

on the wings of an ocean breeze

I know in my heart,

there will always be a moment’s peace.
