the pungent smell of the salt and sea,
he flared his nostrils as he dove in.
black sand smeared across his forehead,
wind ruffled his raven hair,
coal black eyes glinting towards the faraway lighthouse,
as if a devine entity has summoned him to shore.i fell in love
at the first sight of him.
with a sea beast,
and i paid the price for believing
that beasts
knew what love was as well.
