Rough Seas

 

Born to water, 

Raised to lake,

Life claimed by the ocean,

Returned to sand on death.

 

The blood of a sailor is in my veins,

Love of the water is instilled in my soul.

Where others see fear and emptiness

I see the potential of what could be.

 

Take me over the waves that call my name.

Let me dive amidst the coral and caustic light. 

And for the love of all that is holy and high,

Bring me some Dramamine.
