Waves

Let the waves engulf you, 

Let them take you away. 

 

Forget about the life you have, 

Forget about the struggle you face. 

 

Have the waves be your friend, 

Have them show you the way. 

 

The waves show you love, 

The waves whisper to you not to be afraid.  

 

Let the song of the ocean keep you alive, 

Like the blood pulsing through your veins. 

 

For when you let the waves surround you, 

They finally can take you away.

    I know the mountains were not formed by him

    Instead it is the science in the world

    The reason we are here in this moment
