Borders

On the borders of safety
That’s where I find peace
Where the black sand
Meets the raging seas
I see their forces
For what they truly are
Yet I’m reminded
Of my beating heart
Among the lonely rocks
Is where I lay my head
I hear the ocean calling
Come with me instead
She sings me songs
Of ungrateful souls
Who once thought gods
Could bring them home
On the borders of safety
That’s wher I find peace
Wher the black sand
Meets the raging seas
I see their forces
For what they truly are
Yet I’m reminded
Of my beating heart
And I could swear
That the ocean sings
And the mountains talk to me
I could swear
That I hear her breath
And her heartbeat in the air
I could swear
I could swear
On the edge of comfort
That’s where I find love
And the ocean already knows
But she can’t love you
Like you love her
There’s no mercy
From Mother Earth
