A gull in profile on a rock
Tang of salt laden air
Crash of waves down below
On my lips a silent prayer
Oh that I could walk into the sea
Leave behind the beach of sand
Slip into her warm embrace
Let her carry me in her hand
Carry me ever so far away
Leave me on a deserted shore
There to find what I seek
Then, only then, to roam no more.
