So here I sit
Alone in the sea.
Looking at the world
That is stretching before me.
I don't know how to swim
But I find myself here.
Lost amidst the sea
of my deepest fear.
But a boat appears
on the distant shore.
A boat that I swear
I have seen before.
It pulls out towards me
and has me in sight.
Somehow, this ship feels right.
So I reach out for it,
hoping to climb free
And escape from the drowning
That has befallen me.
With freedom in sight
I feel I just might
Be safe to sail again.
