I wish to only Understand.
I want to understand the ocean.
Past the law of gravity of it-
I want to understand-
I want to know-
what it feels.
Does it feel?
I hope it does.
I want to know-
how it feels, crashing against the shore.
What it thinks-
when it trades in it's sand for what's on the shore.
Can the ocean think?
I'd like to say yes.
I'd like to say that its a living,
breathing, thinking and feeling
organism.
But i cant say that can I?
Because I don't fully understand.

But I want to.
