lungs to breathe

Push off into uncertainty

Pull in the ropes, draw the anchor and sink

Let go of the shore...And be sure 

you are not coming home

Floating away far from here

To find that which is alive and dear

 

Under the moon and stars 

Without ground to kiss and reminese 

Some days you have to lose to find what was there all along

 

The compass is spinning

Each wave whispers your name

Guiding me around in circles for days

And in each moment what's beneath calls deeply

Dreaming buried dreams

the dirt under my fingernails brings me close to us. 

 

Pushing forward through breaking waves

To the distance where waves carry and not cut

I've been bleeding too long

Calmer seas welcome me
