You were carved out of the sea Watermarked by your ancestry In a tug of war between the tide and me What felt like loss was a victory Cause you were swept ashore like bottles holding prayers You were carved out of the earth Safe and sound in your second birth Gravity has tied your ankle to the shore As a lighthouse tamed the endless ocean war Against the calming light our silhouettes are changing shape The stories you've been told have made you brave Such inheritance was formed within the sand Like the shells you gather in the safety of your hands Dive in with your eyes closed For the life you were born to claim And the water will be paralyzed By the courage you contain And the flutter of your earnest heart It will fill the silent seas And all will be restored in your memory
