Blue mixed with green, and waves collided with each other. The ocean was singing us a song; the lyrics were all the words that had been spilled in it and mixed with feelings of anguish, happiness, sorrow. Words that we had spilled.
Often we fail to trust the people around us as we worry that our secrets may accidentally be shared with the public, that they won't remain secrets anymore. When we confide in someone there is always this worry in the back of our heads that the person may tell someone else.
But the ocean is different. The waters look so alluring as they lure you in along with all your secrets. It promises to keep each and every one of your secrets safe.
So you drop them in, one by one.
You watch your secrets get swallowed by the sea as they drown and drift further away from the surface. The ocean eats and drinks all of your secrets. It gobbles them greedily, unwilling to share it with anyone. Without dispensing them out.
Your secrets will never come out from the depths of blue. They have gone too far and will stay hidden and locked in the drifting waters forever. They will dissolve and become one with the sea.
The ocean eats your secrets. Drinks them all. Swallows them all.
So spill. Spill your secrets to the ocean. Let it take the burden for you. Let your secrets dissolve and drown with the rest of your worries. Spill. Spill some more. For the ocean yearns to eat more.
Heyy guys! I'm back with another short story. Lately, I have been obsessed with writing stories about the ocean so many of my stories have references to the sea.
Small disclaimer: I wrote this short story in March when I was on a cruise this year and I wrote it while literally looking at the ocean and listening to the waves. It really is very peaceful watching the sea. I'm sure I am not the only one who feels this way. See yall soon!
