Diving Deep Poem by Sincair Farrell

Diving deep into an ocean
Unseen surreal depths
Confronted with a prospect so daunting
As to sink without trace

To jump from dizzying heights
Dispelling thoughts of consequences
That may well be faced
A choice between now or never
No more doubts must linger
Or time to waste

A mind that has jumped
Into an unknown abyss
A fast beating heart sunk
Whilst that lump of fear caught in the throat
Swallowed
As fast as eyes could blink

Descending through the air
A weightless body splashed
Into a watery world
Never explored before
Using both arms to float
Swimming with fishes
Breathing beneath an ocean's surface
Guided by dolphins

Whilst blurry eyes were unable to clearly see
A once cautiously reluctant soul
Stopped being afraid
Of whatever it may face
Diving deep
Into a oceanic future
Even if it is an absolute mystery.
