Complexities

A deep blue ocean.

Wondering what’s beneath,

wondering where it ends,

going beyond what your eyes can reach.

Do I even know myself?

You certainly don’t.

You get what I show you,

leave you with your thoughts.

Is the ocean even blue?

Or just a reflection of the sky,

that the bright yellow sun

transfers to your eyes?

The color blue incites extreme

emotion inside.

Deep blue.

Inside of my heart.

Not sadness,

but the ignition to start

on my journey to find myself.

Exploring the deep blue ocean.

There are more colors within,

but the deeper you go,

the less you’ll understand.

Because your eyes may become distorted.

The sun, no longer able to extend its light.

What may seem green,

could be empty,

white.

There is not just one shade to any color.

Just like me.

But I cannot be labeled to just one crayon,

I do not like to stay between the lines.

No limits, no boundaries, no labels.

Instead I flow free,

Like the deep blue ocean.

People love to sight see.

Inquire about my wonders.

What is your secret?

they ask,

not prepared for the answers.

Because there is not just one.

It’s an entire spectrum of blues.

Different hues, different shades, different names.

We are not the same.

Beautiful they are,

All of my complexities,

A deep blue ocean.
