I think I would really enjoy being a whale.
It sounds quiet and deep,
and I really don't mind being alone.
I would like to be miles below you,
deeper than your mind can comprehend,
and breathing what you cannot breathe.
Just so you know, if it comes to choosing sides,
I choose the ocean.
I'm bold like that,
and not into being shallow.
I've beached myself for you, I've lay dying on the sand,
sun beating down on my back and my belly screaming for water,
and I have wanted to go back.
I have been to the bottom to the ocean,
and resurfaced,
just to see your face.
It's amazing how small even a whale can feel,
when it tries to swallow the ocean,
to save itself from drowning.
I'm bold like that by kit feral
