in white waves I swim
nowhere to see the shore
no matter how much I’ve gone
I keep looking if there is more

constantly searching for you
trying to keep myself afloat
yet I struggle scared of the new
fighting the fear of it all

and when I finally see
islands of life forests of soul
so far they are from me
I freeze hesitant to go

waves lull me to sleep
sleep is nothingness and calm
so hard to find the strength
to take this leap of faith
and swim to reach the shore
