Countless Waves

Quarantine Diaries. May 2020

Video created with recordings of different beaches.

I want the ocean to wash away my sadness. I want to get in and never come out. I've been feeling lonely in a planet with almost 8 billion people. How does that makes sense? In days like today , when the sadness feels heavy on my chest, all I really want is to be by the ocean. To let it cure my soul with its pretty looking waves. Salt water, but not as salty as my tears. I want to get lost in the big blue, which happens to be my favorite color. Is blue an emotion? or is it a state of mind? I'm not quite sure, but today I want to match with the ocean. Just sit there and count the countless waves. Let them wash away my sadness. Let them be my company. They would never leave me alone, they would never make me feel lonely again. They would calm me down and clean me up. At night I'd dream that I'm swimming, and I would feel like new in the morning. I would be friends with little birds, the sand would make a nice bed. And I would just think that trying to forget it's kinda silly, when all you do is reminiscing, Then I would just laugh, and I'd just go with thee flow.
