Drop the Ocean, Lift the Sky

Drop the ocean, lift the sky, Today seems like a goodbye, Memories of your voice forever linger. Drink the potion, get me high, Tears start to multiply, You wouldn't even try to lift a finger. Cast the demons out of here, Lift me up, I have no fear, Show you what it means to say I love you. Wake me up, grab a beer, Fill my cup, and shed a tear, My love for you has always been this true. Drain the ocean, engulf the land, Time to focus, begin again, Learn to live without you by my side. Convey the notions, my own brand, Revolve my life, and take a stand, Without you, I know, I will be alright. Ring the bell, sound the horn, Today I have been reborn, I can do this all on my own. Rise the fell, mend the torn, Persevere through all the scorn, My, look at how much you have grown. Drop the ocean, lift the sky, Today seems like a goodbye, Memories of your voice forever linger.

Reading this and your quite recent poems, Daniel, I can see how much you've grown..All things are possible with God. If you haven't already, some day you will meet the girl for you and you will know she's the one. This is a beautiful poem about letting go of a burden and welcoming possibilities. Blessings to you. Love, Annalise
