Standing at the edge
Of the dark still sea
I hear her rhythm
Slowly reaching me
Kneeling in the sand
I breathe in and out
Tasting salt and fear
Excitement and doubt
Slipping out and down
My head goes under
I open my eyes
To eerie wonder
Facing the unknown
I flounder and roll
From a rushing loss
Of perfect control
Rising to the top
I yield to the tide
And make this journey
With love as my guide
