It’s beautiful to me.

Picture Source

And the waves swept past me tonight
Their force, the shimmer
Was almost too much, you see

Caught up in the motion
The stars, the sky, the tranquility
Of the vast, deep unending sea

I closed my eyes and let the current take me away
I felt every rise and fall
And, I allowed my body to relax
And submit in every way

There was no more need to fight
There was no more need to fear
For my heart had finally learned
How to trust the waves that night
