i am the sea


I am a sea
I am sea waiting to be splashed at by someone.

I am the sea watching everyone having a wonderful time in the ocean.

I am the sea waiting for someone to come in the water with me.

I am the sea waiting for my next prey like a cheetah watching an antelope close and carefully.

I am the sea watching over you to see if you are alright.
