Is the Ocean a Colored Ocean?

Caleb says he couldn't control how much of his emotions you are feeling, balance them out a bit. Sometimes it did on its own, like it would be softer at times and bigger at other times. The more we were talking, it was like his feelings for the water, i could feel them all the time. But sometimes there would be a big wave, and the feeling would sort of cover everything up for a moment, and then then go back again.
