An Ocean of Mystery

I lie beneath the curving waves,
With this mystique world,
Beneath the depths of another,
It consumes the emotions deep within,
Allowing this oneness with nature to begin.

Submerged deep below,
Is a tranquillity of coral,
Dressed to dance with colour,
Wilting with the waves,
Nature’s cradle of life.
Swaying so free,
Like flowers of the sea.

A torrent rainbow of fish,
Each so enticing on its own.
Alluring in countless victims,
With their beauty so divine,
Let yourself shimmer,
In the bottomless blue,
For a mere memory is all that’s left of you.

The beach my sanctuary,
The damp warmth of the sand,
Graciously welcomes me,
As I let the sleepiness of the ocean’s roar,
Envelope me as I search for more...

--feel free to criticize it, as I'm entering it in a poetry competition at school :D so I need all the help I can get !

I liked it. I do not have many crytisysms except that after every line you put a comma and then go on to capitalize the next sentence, and in the first line in the last stanza you might want to add an I between beach and my, but It works without the I.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Beautiful! I love it! It's so calm and relaxed, which isn't found in many other pieces. Great job!
