Curiosity Killed the Cat

I stood in front of the vast sea, day after day,
I admired the broad scenery that engulfs me
I admired the huge and little splashes it made,
the proud ripples that come from afar,
waves that turn into meek little splashes,
gently teasing my damp feet

Hours turn into seconds when I stand by the vast sea
The way the sunlight glitters over it,
or the way the moon reflects on it,
it was hypnotizing.

A little cat like me couldn't help but wonder,
What would it be like to be on that sea
How deep is it? What colors does it have to show me under it?
Somehow, I get the feeling that it's peaceful under it,

Day after day,
I can't help but wonder just how far can I go forward into the sea,
without looking back,
if I do that, will I be able to see
what lies under that sea?

But a little cat like me doesn't know how to swim,
that's what makes it so scary,
because no one taught me how to swim
I could only just look at the vast sea

To have a better look,
I have to dive in it, the deeper I get, the scarier it becomes,
The farther I go, the more I feel like I'm on my own

One day, I got tired of looking at the sea,
The sunset stared at me, as if calling me,
I took a step forward, closer into the horizon
And another, and another, and another,
And before I knew it,
I was in the middle of it all
Sinking in, deeper and deeper
with nowhere to turn back to,
the little cat like me had no other choice but to move forward
until that person extends his hands in the hopes of saving me,
I'll continue to struggle in amidst of this beautiful yet scary sea,
for I was the one who chose to dive into it.

I have no right to give up,
I could only, move forward.
