To Live Again

She sits in silence bu the sea And thinks about what might have been She sees the waves crash to the shore And wishes she was one of them But as the Dunlins strut and the Cormorant dives She wonders why she's still alive The beast within rejects her call For death to come and end it all She remembers youth, a distant friend Why did the good times have to end Age only brings great fear and pain And a trip to the unknown again She's lived the life of all it's got Taken, laughed at all the knocks Now she beats her head against the rocks And as her red blood stains the greying sea She cries with one last breath I'm free To live again
