Work Text:
Tonight, the world has shifted
and I am drowning no more.
The darkness is gone, replaced by the light
that you, to me, have gifted.
The sun has come out to greet me
and chased away all of the clouds
for you are the blue of the sky and the sea
to which I am fatefully bound.
You take me, gently, with you
when I am too far from the sand;
you pull me out of the ocean’s grip
and you lead me, safely, to land.
My thankful heart, so cold before,
warms up as you guide me to shore.
