as the waves crash in
caressing my sin
with the clever words
to make me sleep
live with this secret
the shores make me keep
the rivers wash me clean
only to keep me here
rinsing my lies
from me
just to keep me here
the waters speak
with cold intentions
so I stay careful
not to slip a word
water slips beneath
to carry me away
into a sea of lies
