Sea
Slippery sands, lilting waves
Salty breeze
Rushing, gushing
Retreating, pushing ahead
Scorching afternoon sun
Waves dancing
With crowns of fire
Pristine serenity
Despite so much turmoil
Just like my Heart
Outwardly peaceful
Despite all the turmoil
The muggy winds
Brushing and lifting my hair
Caressing with love
Putting pain away
Can I stay here forever?
Watch the sun
Set
Watch the moon
Rise
Sounds of the ocean
Sounds of ethereal music
Washing away realities
Taking away disappointments
Let me be here forever
Watch the cosmic dance
Moved by the symphony
Rising crescendo
Ebbing and flowing
With the sea
Forget that I exist
For a while
Forget
Daily rigmarole
For just a little while more
Sands of Time
Slipping away
From beneath my feet
Losing control
Life is just like these free winds
Fate no longer
Bending to my will
Cornered
Over and over again
Fighting back
Befriending my demons
To do it
Over and over again
These bones are
Now tired
This mind
Looking for rest
This heart
Burnt to ashes
I spread these
Over the angry waves
Take away this existence
Bring forth a new one
Just like the sun sets over the horizon
And rises again like a phoenix
Let me rise too
Let me be new
Give me that glimmer of hope
Give me a sign
Give me a reason
As I take a dip
In these warm waters
Wash away the exhaustion
Of my Soul
As I immerse myself in faith
Tell me, my belief is true
Free my shackles
Give me wings
Let me fly
On the winds of Time
Lift me up
I can fight no more
Accept my surrender
My strength is depleted
Arms are weary
Weapons are exhausted
Here I stand defeated
My ego forfeited
Let's end this battle
Let's wave the white flag of peace
I have been humbled
Life has won over
Let me stay here now
By the Sea.
