Oceans of the free
spread open their hearts for me
They cry – they scream
“The earth sees all – but you took her eyes!”
They depend on the tall plants to climb -
to breathe
Packs of wolves – like freedom
coming at you with force like rain clouds
Quietly, we all tell
Swim with the free and begin to breathe like me
Hands to the sky, but still the time has no eyes like mine
Reaching for the stars like you, but those stars are galaxies away
Untouched by human time, these human eyes can’t find you
So when the days are colder, and I feel like crawling on all fours
When the moon will help lead the way out of the dreams and into the sea
The seas are where I’d begin to walk with you

— The End —
