The Sea and I

As I am traveling to the sea
I can feel it calling out to me

As soon as my feet sink into the sand
The sea is pulling me by the hand

I can hear the waves crashing on the shore
Suddenly my spirit begins to calm once more

The sea always does this you see
It's as if it cools something inside of me

When in the past there's been strife
The sea was there to help navigate my life

I wish the sea and I could stay this way
But for now I only have this day

Oh how I will miss it so
But far from the sea I must go
