Something Much More

I jump with full force into the cold blue sea,

No anchor.
Weight of my shoulders; and two thin threads enough to sink a ship and she.
"Why did I take her?" 
She stands there laughing, watching, & waving goodbye.
I float above for a moment as I take one last look...
She smiles. 

I cut off the threads from my shoulders and proceed to dive down a few miles.
Thoughts of doubt consume which alludes myself to assume I'm no better.
"That ship deserves better." I thought to myself.
Surprisingly I manage to hold my breath.
Unsurprisingly I fight my way back to the surface without rest..
No ship. 
Just me, alone, in the vast sea of nothingness; content.
Eventually I find myself back under, where I was greeted by a mermaid.
"Grab my hand", her thoughts echoed to mine.
Without hesitation I did as she commanded.
We swim into the depths until we reach what appears to be a castle, something I would've never imagined.
"That world you knew and loved is gone.", Her thoughts echoed yet again.
She taught me to breathe under water, and I eventually grew some fins.

Moral of that story for those a little unsure:
I died in that water, and became something much more.

The End.
