WAVES

The world stood still, and the sky that was coated by the white clouds resembled the color of the standing wave that the sea had formed.Proudly, he faced the tranquil wave. He saw his reflection through the transparent waters of the sea. The moment was surreal, but he had expected this time to come, for him to be face to face with with the known. The white seagulls flew over his head yet he kept steadfast-his eyes fixated on the creation.

He had waited for dawn, for the sun to emerge from the horizon and when it did it led him to the seas. It seemed as if he had ignited the underground realm by just standing on the rocks that aligned themselves to form timid confines against the strong currents of the sea. His heart had become permeable and his senses livened. He tasted the earth in his mouth, and that made his heart long for a greater feeling, a feeling that had already announced its presence in every detail of the surrounding.

He stared directly into the heart of the wave, and he saw his whole life flash right through his eyes.

The memories that were hidden in the borders of his heart crept out and made themselves novel. All his senses intensified and all the layers that covered his heart shed, one by one till he was fully exposed to the presence of the ethereal.The wave displayed his juvenile frame, depicting his careful strides into the forest, with his tiny hand holding the end of the ember of wood that he had stolen from the bonfire his father had set. He moved with weightlessness on his fragile heart-the world belonged to him and at that moment, with the ember in his hand, he experienced a power he immediately remembered, it was not of this world and he knew it.

He now knew, standing against the sea that that power was of the One who joined his bones, concealing them with perfectly molded pale clay. And this reality had become conspicuous in the forest, when his soul was still closer to heaven.

And now, it was unveiled again. This time, it came to make itself known.

His time on earth was made up of moments that held secrets, he had gotten used to having his own life concealed from him. He allowed forces in his heart to lead him to every destination that was planned for his life. Now, opposing the sea he instantly had an epiphany that the universe had awaited his arrival and he was going to be redeemed.

The sea was now unraveling what has been and what will be and his heart took it all and kept it. Forming tight confines around it and in that moment he knew that it will no longer leave him because he had now made it a part of his bones, the standing wave collapsed and larger waves formed in his soul.
