Where the Ocean Lies
I looked in her eyes and found the ocean
 even it’s white peaks and endless dark depths
 splashing waves showed her every emotion
 easily revealing internal deaths
 I hoped the waters would calm when she slept
 as they were concealed by ivory lids
 the ocean leaked on her face when she wept
 spilling her spirit that was like a kid’s
 when angered ice formed under her lashes
 causing frozen glared that cut with no knife
 the ripples would surge and become crashes
 her eyes were the door to another life
 the sea’s ferocity was in her soul
 and it was worth any loss of control

I believe in everything until it is disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now?<br /> -John Lennon
