A friend, a home, a lover
Of all seasons and all tides
Born into a body of lessons
And a mind that runs wild
You learn lessons to the beat of your own drum
Picking chords of your own creation
Born of ears listening in love
You sing melodies that melt hearts
Out of the boxes, supposedly called life
Even with eyes pierced by howling offshores
You see the earth's soul with your heart
As it is
Waves of passion peak and you slide inside the belly
Fear is still there, but, now you go
And when calm quiet descends upon the oceans surface you do not look away
Instead you dive deeper, and pause breathless
Ready to face what you will find
As ready as you'll ever be
You are as ready as you will ever be
