The sea whispers my name
Caressing my face with morning breeze
The blue temptress smiling, glimmering
Impure thoughts conjured by her beauty
Mesmerized by crashing waves
I gaze at the tides curious, unquivering
How do you embrace the rocky shore?
The way tides are welcomed endlessly

Suppose on this cliff, my eyes shut tight
I approach half-hearted, the edge of reason
Will I be overwhelmed by fear of falling
Or will loneliness overwhelm fear itself?
I want to leave all burdens behind.
What treasures are there beneath to find?
Peace in the arms of abysmal darkness
No pain and suffering in that dream sublime.

My mind thirsts for answers
And my spirit yearns for rest
Urging me to leap for the wonderous deep
No more misery in that eternal slumber
The wailing wind and weeping clouds
Swept me away from that lucid trance
I open my eyes, found myself walking away.
My last ounce of sanity sighing
Not today, not today...
