Beneath the Surface

Beneath the surface, calm and still,
Lies a world that time can’t kill.
A place where shadows softly creep,
And secrets in the silence sleep.

The waves above may crash and roar,
But here, the heart feels nevermore.

It holds its breath, so deep, so wide,
A hidden ocean, dark inside.

Yet even in this quiet sea,
There’s something waiting, wild and free.
A flicker of light, a distant gleam,
Awakening the buried dream.
