How I Became the Sea

Description

Listened to the Owl City song "How I Became the Sea" the whole time I worked on this =) thought it was rather fitting. I just did this cause I love crabs and this was the most graceful way I could turn Kona into a shelled friend. :leetcrab:

June was the lobster shell I dug by hand
A haven that hid me well beneath the sand
The wide windy waves washed in, but I stayed dry
The great breakers broke again, as I nodded off inside

And then, when the Empress ran aground,
And my eyes turned blue and green,
I heard a gorgeous sound,
And that's when it became a dream
When the sky fell in,
When the hurricanes came for me,
I could finally crash again,
And that's how I became the sea

I wrenched the engines off and drank them down
The depths turned the iron soft as they swiftly drowned
And I brought the ocean side to its rusty knees
As I felt the eventide deep in my shallow dream
