the arms of the sea they took me in
water kissing my skin
in the eyes of god i am just a sin
forgive me, my kith and kin

for i would die above the seabed
buried in the water, my body long dead
no words left to be said
for lies would escape my mouth instead

these sorrows they are ceaseless
and i admit i am weak and never dauntless
for i manifest my soul's darkness
for i lived a life full of recklessness

on sundown i had drowned
as the last few breaths perished
my unspoken grief had suddenly withered
and came the happiness of the afterlife i had long awaited.
