Salt water scars,
The kiss of the sea-
I went to the ocean
And you saw all of me.
Traced a line in the sand
But you washed it away,
Consumed me inside
The crash of your gaze.
I can't hide from the ocean,
So wide and so deep-
Gash in the land
On the globe of my skin.
With your tender touch
Made smooth and made free-
Somehow we're made new
When the old is simply seen.

Avoid "so", and in "so wide"; anyone can say that! You're not to be just anyone.
