Hold your breathe.

The currents can be strong,
but you’re still on top
just floatin’ by

Watch the sky-
so beautiful.
The time runs slow,
so enjoy the ride.

Take in the aroma with one deep-
                                                           ­                           breath.

Seek past the horizon,
for land is not there,
but you have surface beneath you.

Just
       hold
on.

Let your past wash in the ripples-
no matter how large,            
they fade.
                  .
                    .
Keep a smile.
You’ll be there before you know it
and once you are look into the sea and
breathe.

Be enticed as your future
rides into shore
and points you to the arms of care.

Let them wrap you tight;
take in the sweet scent of safety.
