The Tide

RESCUE ME MY OCEAN
OH SEA OF MY SOUL
ENGULF ME IN THE TIDE OF YOUR PEACE
SAVE ME FROM THE PAIN OF THIS REALM

I AM CURSED
TO LIVE WITHOUT YOU
WITHOUT ONENESS
SUBMERGED IN SUFFERING
THAT LEADS MY EXISTENCE

FREE MY HEART
I BEG YOU MY WATER OF LIFE
TAKE ME TO WHERE I AM LOVED
TO YOUR HOME THAT BELONGS TO ME STILL
UPON THE SHORES OF HEARTS
WHERE MYSELF IS BURIED IN A CITY OF THEN
SURROUNDED BY AN AURA OF ACCEPTANCE
ABLE TO BE THAT WHICH I AM
THOUGH EVEN SO
I WILL COMPLETE ALONE
AND YET
WITH THE BREATH OF YOUR WIND
IS ME
IS MY STRENGTH
THAT ALL MAY BE DONE...
