Washed Ashore

Waves, pull me back in again

Waves, fresh brush against my skin

Waves, take me away from reality

Waves, my life their causality

I will find my slumber, once I make the swim to shore

The tide pulls me under, I tried my best, but I can’t feel the floor

Lost at sea, ocean above and below

A world so free, yet I’m caught in your undertow

No escape from what’s current, your tidal

What swims within a deterrent to your arrival

Yet here I am chasing that simple sensation

Body carried off by such transparent temptations

The further I dive, the less chance that I’ll ever resurface

The closer we are, the more stress questions are you worth this

Waves, pull me back in again

Waves, fresh brush against my skin

Waves, take me away from reality

Waves, my life their causality

Emotions, they come in waves

Memories, they go in waves

Boundless, a blue eternity

Lawless, drown my spirituality

No one to save, no hope of rescue

Nothing but waves to get through

Drag me down, into your depths

Let me drown, in your breath

Pressure your presence enough to make me crumble

Closure deeper I go the more I’ll find myself in trouble

I watch our skylines crash together, so beautiful and scary

Flashes of blue and orange, guess we’re complementary

Still, I remain stranded

My past life rebranded

No life preserver

My purpose to serve her

Or was it to swerve her

Arms flail as we sever

Taken back by her curvature

Closed my eyes from overexposure

Lens flare, little stars obscure our image

Night sky, peaceful end to this scrimmage

Waves, pull me back in again

Waves, fresh brush against my skin

Waves, take me away from reality

Waves, my life their causality
