Temple of the sea

 

As we walk, we talk, I smiled, she smiled. It was a great moment for me. As we approached the beautiful view of the gazebo. She was amazed on how beautiful it is at night. The light sparkle at the bottom part and the calm nature of the sea in the night. She said it was so peaceful as if the sea is calming all her nervousness and worries aside to give way to the present peace of mind and marveled on the ocean’s presence.

 

 

“I love it, Spiny.” Said Cassandra with beautiful marveled expression.

 

I smile at the thought of her calling me Spiny. As if I am a cute dog who showed her something beautiful.

 

 

“Yeah, it’s beautiful” and I silently whispered to myself… your beauty and the oceans magnificence match so well that it takes my last breath away, as if your sucking the life out of me… but I really don’t mind, I never thought that I would come to this moment that I’ll fall hard and madly in love with a girl I just meet in this island.

 

 

“Did you whispered something? I heard a silent murmur of beautiful words…”

 

 

I immediately lied. “Nah, it was just a silent prayer to the goddess of the Sea..”

 

 

“Wow, let me hear it.”

 

I quickly gathered up my feelings and silently whisper the words and closed my eyes…

Temple of the Sea

-

I adore thee

The beauty I bring with me

{ }

oh, goddess of the Sea

give me strength

to bring good wealth

to her fading confidence

bring out the omnipotence

she hides deep within the walls of her heart

the will to let go the emotional sadness cart

to live free from the burdens of the past

to connect again to the dreams she unnoticeably cast-off.

 

Then as I open up my eyes and saw a tear fell on the left side of her greeny pearly eyes… then she quickly turned her back and faced the ocean and said:

 

 

“Thank you, you have seen something that I haven’t seen on the long time. I felt weaker inside when I pretend to be strong. I always put a barrier, always a step far enough in getting closer to any friends I met. The past burdens me so much that I felt trapped.”

 

 

Then she turned around and face the beautiful ocean view…

 

 

“It’s amazing isn’t it? When you face the ocean as if I drifted away all my worries for a time being. Imagining the waves splash and thinking it wash away my entire being and become the ocean foam - floating, wondering & discovering the things I haven’t seen in this part of ocean… I like to daydream you know. I find it an escape from harsh realities at my sight.”

 

 

I came closer as if some gravity is pulling me towards her…

ok the only thing I see that you might want to change about this chapter is the description of her eyes, beady is something more like how you would describe a Lobsters eyes or a bugs of some sort, unless you really think her eyes are beady, lol, I'd go with something more ethereal sounding...more romantic, like gems or emeralds or shining, innocent, intoxicating etc..I think you were just trying to see if I was really reading! IAM! I love it! Paxie!

[Pax]

hehe, smiling, I can't help but smile in your review, thank you so much for the suggestion, I am really, really glad you still like this storyline, it's priceless to me when you enjoyed it... i can't thank you enough...

[Corset]

I loved that he closed his eyes and recited poetry for her, that was very romantic :)

[Pax]

is it really romantic to recite a poem to a woman? hmm... i wonder... :D

[Corset]

ah pearly eyes, pretty :)

Wow! I like this chapter, bro. For me, it could stand like a short story alone. The plot is clear. I like the setting. I like also the poem inside this chapter.

Here's my little help to you:
"“This you whispered something?" ----------Did you whisper.....

"the dreams she unnoticeablycast-off."--------the dreams she unnoticeably cast-off.

Love this one...with little touch of fantasy- the Goddess of the Sea.

Great job again, bro. You're lucky to have another chapter here. Unlike me, my book My One True Love's not yet done.

oo nga eh, akala ko di mo na yun econtinue... ako nga kasi may reader ako na nagustohan yung plot line and how the story goes, i owe my thanks to corset so much... if not for her, i will not have the confidence to write it...

kaya continue on your story... kaya mo yan... thanks for the suggestions, nasisira talaga yung format niya dito...
