Ocean Poem by chloe young

Ocean

Rating: 5.0


inhaling the ocean breeze and feeling it empty my lungs makes me feel completely intact

i can taste the salt in its entirety on my tongue and i try to scrape it all off with my front teeth

i feel the waves roaring over my heart, liberating it from veins and its arteries, the sea filling the orifices of my organs

the shores stones crowd at my toes and break my skin, but i am cleansed

i stride into the water and it seeps into my nostrils and my intellect becomes infiltrated by the sea, my lungs are suffocated by the wet

and i am completely intact

I loved this one... extremely well written, your comparison and allusion to the ocean creates a wild visual that compliments your message of becoming yourself with every taste, touch, smell, and thought. You are the ocean, Chloe, keep flowing.
