As smooth as a river stone
As cold as the icy depths
Bathe me in your layers
*
As dark as the night
As light as the sky in day
I lose myself in your complexities
*
As vibrant as tanzanite
As lively as iris
You make me feel at home
*
You are the ocean,
Wide and endless
Full of death and despair
And brimming with possibility
*
With your arms wide open, welcoming
Into a vast void, saying
Fall into the abyss
*
You are the abyss
You are the boundless infinite
You are the sadness and the joy
You are the sum of everything
