Nothing is sighted in the depths of the sea
The darkness inhaled is almost comforting
I love the feel of oceans sweet lullaby
And the breath of the water humming by

I rise to the surface and waves push me below
My hand reaches upward, and oh the water glows
Finally I find that I’m upon the rolling waves
My wet stringy hair blows upon my wet face

The shore- I find I gone far from anywhere
I pick a direction and float, from here to there
The current should carry me to a place I know
I live among the waves and isles of below

I climb unto the forsaken shore- an abandon isle
No one knows where to look in an ocean of miles
I’m cold and wet and awake to the beating rain
I find a place for my shelter from all bane

I find a million cuts and bruises upon salty me
And a leafy cover fallen in the windy breeze
I run atop the hill of the land and find wildness
There was once more I had seen more than this

But it’s gone and I weep
As I stand on bruised feet


Love is never foolish- and if it is, it is a Divine Foolishness.

-Sir Gawain

I rise to the surface and waves push me below
My hand reaches upward, and (OH) [my] the water glows
Finally I find that I’m upon the rolling waves
My wet stringy hair blows upon my wet face

The shore- I find I gone far from anywhere
I pick a direction and float, from here to there
The current should carry me to a place I know
I live among the waves and isles of -[the] below

(it throws the rythmn that the in there_

I climb unto the forsaken shore- an abandon isle
No one knows where to look in an ocean of miles
I’m cold and wet and awake to the beating rain
I find a place for my shelter from all this pain

(whose pain is it)


I thought this was a remarkable piece. Def one of your bests. MInor changes and thats all to be made. This was very creative and I love the sea having grown up on it so beautiful work
