All divers heading down the line,
Knowing we would have only eight minutes of bottom time
On my back only one tank heading straight down,
as playing with my jaw was all needed to my ears equalize.

Fast arrival, the first to find inside a hole a huge four feet fish,
on my neck a touch I felt, My boyfriend, diving instructor inside my eyes
His straight look to see if I was responsive. What would bother me,
at that time was all ok, at the black fish eyes was all I wanted to stare,
He was so beautiful graciously moving his body, slowly, freely, neutrally buoyant. And there I was, capturing his messages of peace
and relaxation, Happiness was probably all he knew,
what about narcosis? I was feeling it, and he probably knew.
But what would he be thinking about me? - What is that creature doing down here? With all that stuff around her face an body, She can't even thing straight...

And again, another grab on my neck, now he was staring at me seriously, so disturbing he was, couldn’t he just forget me there?
I knew, it was time to go up...And say goodbye to my friend, as example I had to show, to the new divers around, not exceeding the bottom time. There resting stayed my new huge friend at 165 feet, goodbye Mr. Fish, Up I must go, slowly though, And at 15 feet rest, for five more minutes, still staring at my friend Fish way down bellow me.
Again my boyfriend struggling to catch my attention, holding my hands, playing as if he was to kiss me, But all that I wanted was to go back down, and continue my talk with that big fish...So many secrets he might have had to share and reveal…
