Truth comes in waves. Like the rhythm of the ocean. We were born there in its womb. And We are at the mercy of the moon. It’s hard to tell the truth When you don’t recall Being immortal. When you’ve forgotten Your own beauty. *The song that could ultimately save you.* So we come here, Lost limping sirens. Mouthing lies In falsetto memories. Breaking bread with comfort. But Leaving the dead to linger upon a truthless shore.

Ocean Speak
Truth comes in waves. Like the rhythm of the ocean. We were born there in its womb. And We are at the mercy of the moon. It’s hard to tell the truth When you don’t recall Being immortal. When you’ve forgotten Your own beauty. *The song that could ultimately save you.* So we come here, Lost limping sirens. Mouthing lies In falsetto memories. Breaking bread with comfort. But Leaving the dead to linger upon a truthless shore.
What does the Ocean say to you?
