100 Days of Poetry Challenge~ Day Nine/Etheree~ "Sea"

Waves
curl through
the tendrils
of my dark hair
as I swim below
the glowing, moonlit night.
I taste the sweetened bubbles
that hobble and dance around me.
I imagine that dolphins watch as
I embrace the world they've had forever.
My hearbeat pulses like a dull echo
As I drift and glide through darkened space.
Water is freedom and escape.
I never understood that.
Now I want to live it.
As tide pulls and moves,
I go along.
I'm ocean.
I am
sea.
