‪Her heart was an ocean
‪Deep, blue, and full of life‬
‪Waves caressing the sand
‪Sweeping some away, leaving itself behind‬

‪Her heart is still an ocean
‪Still deep, still blue, still full of life‬
‪But the water is now darker‬
‪Not gentle waves, but a storm inside

It is not so kind
For it distorts her cries
But she's afraid to let go
Holding on for dear life

Now she sees the fish
The corals and the weeds
They have let go, for they know
That once again, they will grow

She is unafraid.
