I love how the ocean puts me at ease
How the sand kisses my toes
How the wind feels so strong
Almost as if someone's wrapping
Their arms around me
How I feel so secure
How no one can hear me
How I'm all alone with nobody
And nothing but the breeze

I love how cold it is
How free I am
It almost feels like bliss

I love how the ocean
Can almost be like a dear friend
That has always been there listening
Never pretending like everybody else

I love how no matter how many times
The seasons have changed, it always
Tells me that everything's going to be okay
No matter how strong the waves
How violent or aggressive they may be
It was always there, to calm me
Keeping me from harm
From everything it knew of me

But I hate the thought of not knowing
That it has always been there
And will forever be

I hate how unappreciated I have been
That not a single hello or thank you
Ever passed through me
Not even a smile of gratitude
To satisfy the bliss that it has given to me

I hate how my last moments
Were with you
How you kissed my toes
With the sand that will become me
How you embraced me with your
Last bliss
Making me as secure for the journey

I hate how when I finally gave away
And closed my eyes
I only realized that you've always been there
Waiting for a reply
For a last goodbye

But I love how you still accepted me
Despite the circumstances
You took me without hesitation
Without regret
Without hate
Just love
Enough to put me at ease
Enough to keep me awake
Even after all these years
Because to you, I was always a friend

And you

My therapy
