Sea monster:
pull me from my boat and drown me in your waters
let the currents drag me to your home
a new haven for those lost at sea
countless souls left to wander
a shadowy world deathly in its beauty


let me live recklessly among foreign creatures
driven mad by freedom and grown wise from solitude
carry me upon your back, floating with ease
as if making love to the heat of the day

sing me the sound of your waves
lullabies washing away sins
whispering fleeting truths in my ear


leave me naked on the shore
sea foam biting at my ankles
bidding goodbye


As salt on my lips reminds me of your sweet kiss

I remember you were mine once,  my Sea monster.
