The Ever Beautiful Sea

I looked out on the sea, the warm ocean breeze caressing my face gently. I could smell the salty sea with each gentle breath I took, smiling outward. I looked at you and smiled. You looked back and chuckled slightly. Quickly that chuckle turned to a smile. We sat there as the blue sea glittered with the gleaming rays of light cast down from the heavens by the star of life.

I looked deeply into your eyes as we smiled to each other. I swam deeply through your soul thrrough your eyes, as you smiled to me with that beautiful look on your face. You then looked out to the sea once more, as did I.

As we gazed on the blue waters that world so close, yet so far away looked back at us. The endless world deep below. The waters teeming with life and possibility. We look down at that world. It seemed to be calling to us. Calling to our very existence, as if the blue world wished to show us its beauties.

We walked down the sandy path stepping into the waters. The water brought on a slightly warm and safe sensation. It's scent was heavy with salt, but it was so pleasant, that it hardly seemed strong at all. We began to drift out into the deep blue. It washed us beneath. Holding you close in my arms, we realized that even though our final moments would be painful, we would at least have each other.

Suddenly you let out a gasp for air as your lungs could no longer hold out, fearing to watch you go in my arms, unable to resurface, I breathed in as well. Surprised I realized that we could both breathe beneath the sea. Inhaling I look around. The waters washed over us. The majesty of the world below welcomed us. Gazing upon the see we saw a new world where we could see the beauty of the world in a new light. As we explored this vast new world, the land seemed to fade away from our minds.

Several days later a fisherman came upon us. Hoisting us to his boat he discovered two lovers each clinging to the other tightly with smiles across their faces. He cried both tears of joy at the beautifully tragic sight. They were lovers even in death.. Their love, so pure... so strong, had given them a new world in the next life in which they could enjoy the company of one another happily for the rest of eternity.
