My favorite place to be is by the ocean
I love the sound of the waves
It reminds me of how deeply I feel emotion
So far and vast these feelings flow
Sometimes too much for me to handle
I try to remind myself to go slow
So that I do not feel myself dismantle
Wake up slowly
Try to talk slowly
Keep a safe space
So no one can hurt me
I hope that someday I will let them in
I hope that someday I will jump in
Into the cold depths of the ocean
So you can truly see the extent of my love and devotion
Words From The Borderline 
Life can get tough and in turn it toughens you up. But don’t be dismayed it’s all part of the journey.

Sincerely i think the ocean reflects us: sometimes calm, other times turbulent! Serene now, raging later! Full of passion, unfathomable, unpredictable and always up to something.
Beautiful poem! I love it.

I have also felt that the ocean is the best place where I could let my emotions flow down through me…like a vast ocean, my emotions would flow to the ocean that is before me..
