Waves of life wash upon my feet,
The oceans tears of sorrow
Spray onto my face.
The unknown surround me,
The shadows of mystery live
Within the shores of life. As
Sapphire screams poor out from the waters depth.
Waves of fiery-anger tare through
Anything in its path.
Creatures of mystery live in its shadows.
My eyes close as I take in
Each and every sound of the
Untamed ocean.

hm well first there was alot of cliche lines i've read so many other times such as "tears of sorrow" & "the shadows of mystery"
i mean its a tough thing to make a topic so often used not to be cliche so dont get me wrong im sure you've made effort.
but i suggest you look into more vocabulary to specify what it is you are trying to express and also the imagery seems a bit dark for ocean life.
thank you for entering
