I know that if I jump into you I won’t hit the bottom
That’s not what I am afraid of
Some people give the appearance of being deep
Then you find out that hard way
That jagged rocks hide in shallow murky waters ;
The fear is not in hitting the bottom,
The fear is in not seeing the bottom
I don’t know what lies in the depths of you
Maybe some beautiful smooth shellsOr even a hidden treasure
Or maybe the depth is endless
Like the ocean floor
Maybe I will never reach it
But I think I am finally ok with that
It is part of the mystery
Part of the risk
It is part of the inward drawing of my heart
The desire to explore the unknown
Dive into the uncharted, which I cannot see
We'll feed sharks on the ocean floor
