Being Underwater

By Sahiti Siddharth

Being underwater is like a trip to heaven
Being underwater is so sweet
Being underwater is like flying in the ocean
Where the surface is meters beneath your feet

Being underwater is like a dream come true
I wish it was real, but the chances are few
Being underwater is like returning to childhood
When I owned an aquarium and a tin of fish food

Being underwater is like dancing with the fishes
And that totally is one of my wishes!
Being underwater is like a fairy tale
A kingdom where the king is a whale

Being underwater is like getting lost in a sleep
Snoring loudly, hundreds of fathoms deep
Being underwater is like counting as you breathe
Only some understand the magic of the oceans beneath
