• Bobbing, adrift, I cannot be,
    Floating away on a merciless sea
    While you wait for my return
    The sun's grin glints devilishly.

    Powerless, swept in the tide
    I struggle to preserve my pride
    The distance is too far to bridge
    You are no longer at my side.

    "I'm sorry", I call, as sadness seeps in
    Drowning my bones in feelings of sin.
    This, above all, was my fault.
    I slip beneath the horizon's rim.
