In the Sea

2/29/12

Hear the story of the ocean
The sailor in the sea
The challenging of every notion
He holds currently:

Waves are heavy; clouds are dark
Hold on to a savior
Beware - the enemy’s remark
Will insult your behavior

You have slid into the deep
You are falling down
Remember now to always keep
That savior you have known

You can float up to the top
Seeking only ease
Or determine not to stop
Chasing perfect peace

The deeper you decide to swim
The harder it will be
The pressure grows; sun goes dim
Until you cannot see

But do believe that all abuses
The darkened ocean hurls
Have their purposes and uses
Discovered at the pearls

The path is yours; swim on longer
And one day you will see
This depression made you stronger
The struggle made you free
