Sweet Confession Tide

Sweet Confession Tide Sweet briney trickles o’er my steps Waves swill all sign here I have been Draws misery below to ocean depths Salts the wounds inflicted so obscene Leaves my soul anew, fresh and clean. Quintain (English)

Heaven knows how I missed this one, bruvver. An innovative title to denote sweet cleansing by the big briny. By far (and I mean by VERY far) the best entry I've seen to date. Good luck, bruv mine. I'm rooting deeply for you. Licia ^__*
