Analysis of The Ocean



The blue wave
Like a unstopping cave
People at the shallow
I am at the deep
just want to keep Floating
The bright blue water
hear my family
Calling my name
felt the same
Wanting to stay
In the bay
feel a brush on the side of my leg
It seems a fish wanted to be pet
decide to go under to see what’s inside
I see beautiful blue water with bumping fish
The feeling on the water brush on my skin was soft and warm
The fish gills were rough they felt like they were torn
felt a rough pain in my stomach to go up to the air
 knew I had to but I didn’t care
I had to leave
I miss it already
I should have swam that’s all I wanted
