Knowing how deep the ocean
You still tested the waters
Swimming so well with the motion
Almost getting slaughtered

Why do you still proceed?
Knowing the possible dangers
Of these deeply troubled seas
Now we are no longer strangers

And you continue to tread on
The ocean's waves hitting hard
But you keep fighting past dawn
And the ocean considers its guard

The ocean nears defeat
And willingly lets you in
Now feeling incomplete
But you now are within

This ocean's gaurded heart
Knowing every twist and turn
Wishing to never to be apart
Knowing this feeling is certain

You contain the ocean in your hands
And yet you yearn to nourish
Knowing no one else understands
Wanting nothing but for it to flourish
