Entering The Depth

The sky was high above, the wind was blowing over my body cooling off the touch of July’s sun. I got off my beach blanket that said life is good and started walking towards the ocean. The sky teared last night and so did I, the sand was wet caressing the soles of my feet and gently giving in. One foot in front of the other just like when I was a little boy and when the ground was closer and it hurt less when I fell. I made it. The glittery tongues of water went higher and higher up sending a tingle through my skin.  When the water touched the area of my heart, I stopped and just stood swaying with the waves, the ocean like a loving mother cradled me in. I wanted to be held and soothed, loved and accepted and told that I am ok, that everything is ok. I looked up at the sun, the corners of my eyes squinted, my mind relaxed; beauty surrounded me and I swayed and swayed with the waves and the ocean of my tears started to leave me and I swayed and swayed with the waves and then I took a dive, into the ocean, the ocean of my life, into my pain and into my happiness and then I flipped on my back and let the ocean hold me up while I was looking up at the bluest sky I’ve ever seen and it told me that I am ok and that everything is ok.
