The Anchor of my soul
I anchor my soul in the middle of the sea
And big ships come chasing after me
It is the place where you don’t want to be
when big waves are riding on the sea and
You are boxed into the four corners of the earth
And the universe is slowly drifting away from you
Awake from your slumber
oh dying souls, take a deep breath and
release the stagnant air,
and replenish your soul
Depart from the woeful solitude of time
and embrace yourself with good news
shut the door of isolation in its face
and join the living human race
look for a new companion,
and let go of the manipulative one
the world is big and a hundred thousand
person is waiting to take your hand
Tomorrow is the start of a brand new day
and good things are coming your way
take a moment to think,
how things would have been
if you had not anchored your soul
In the middle of the depth.
Somewhere in the middle of the sea
something special is waiting for thee
place your heart above your head
dnd observe the passing ship
It is the hopeful anticipation that pulls
you to that special one
and destiny will take your hand
Look at the planes flying above your head
they are on a special mission to bury the dead
A multitude of crows are crusading in the skies
and the monarch butterflies are standing by
with a message from the ancestor, urging you
to cross over the border and walk through the garden
where the honeybees are pollinating the flowers
Nature is beautiful when you glimpse it from afar
so get ready for a special journey that will resurrect
you from the dark, far away in the perilous sea
a ship is anchored and it is waiting for thee.
