I've come so far as a woman
As a person
As a human
There were times I thought I'd never see the light of day
And there were times when we dreaded the rising sun
There were nights I wish to never remember
And nights I wish I'd never forget
Being in the middle of the ocean
With no land in sight for miles
Everything seems so much more alive
Back in society where lights pollutes the night sky
I yearn to see the millions of stars shining down on me again
The Earth spoke to me
In lovely tones and scents
In velvet and tweets
With the rush of the wind
And warmth of the rays
In the smell of salt
And the cooling of mist
In the dawn
And in the ending nautical twilight
I've come so far
Or so I thought
The Earth spoke to me again
But I can't listen
