There's a restless, pent-up power in the sea, and you know if it ever decided to stop respecting its boundaries, it could destroy you. But it does respect its boundaries. It stays where it should, so its power feels safe. When you stand here, surrounded by mystery and beauty and power, you feel safe.

You're wasting your timeGiving me that speechyou try to don't reach:your smile <3You're holding your tearsYour insides are deadYou're eating your fears,In a cigarette.You've waited too long,to finally see...Sunshine in the rainis as deep as the sea.

Quote
For all that has been said of the love that certain natures (on shore) have professed for it, for all the celebrations it has been the object of in prose and song, the sea has never been friendly to man. At most it has been the accomplice of human restlessness.
