She’s the Ocean

by

Modhyni Aayushi Doorgasing

She’s the ocean.
The solemn sea,
which is one along the infinite skies, spreads her words along the shoreline of sand.

You will never know what she hides behind her sultry eyes
by gliding the surface and the dry land.
Her watery soul runs forthwith in silence
and in her fathomless womb.

Oh! How calmness dwells in her rivulets,
covering us with her soft tapestry and lulling us to sleep.
She’s the river that breaks away the mightiest of hills and rocks,
destroying myths and hypes through her intellect alone.

She’s the ocean.
Her coral cathedrals give pause to the brave.
Entities reside within her vessels, eager to dive into the unfathomed youths.
The ocean is an effigy of beautiful patchwork,
from which she gives rise to sweet pearls and immutable truths.
Shining splendidly where on earth she carved heavenly lustre.

The ocean is a walking female on both waning and waxing waves,
wrapped in melodious symphonies of the breeze between haven and shore.
Gently, she wipes away our deluge of tears.

In her fevers, she rages in tranquillity,
but in her negligence, she ravages without her sanity from where sunlight can reach no more.

She’s the majesty of the earth; she tosses to turn
and rises to fall with her undulating and ubiquitous hips.
Deep in her depths, the waves ripple and cleanse our bruises delicately.

The ocean is a woman.
The one whom I pulled during stormy days.
She’s you, she’s me, and she’s us.
