The Diver

I want to dive;
Into the endless depths of your soul
Swim through the everlasting ocean of thoughts,
Unearth the colorful gems of memories,
Eternally concealed under the sandy blanket of pain.

I want to understand;
The monsters that lurk in the haunted ships,
Experiences of misfortunes,
Nightmares hiding in the darkest corners,
Of the endless marine.

I want to uncover;
The treasure chest that lays beneath the rubble,
Desperately calling out,
For the divers passing by,
To unleash the happiness that waits within.

I want to unlock;
The treasure chest,
Creating a key with my unyielding emotions of
Concern, curiosity and love,
And releasing the glimmering sparks of treasure,

Which will beautifully
Illuminate the entire ocean
Of your precious soul.

This is an abstract piece where an ocean is used as an extended metaphor for ones soul and the diver symbolizes a person who cares enough to explore into the persons soul and unleash the happiness within them.
