I have turned a new shade of Winter
I am no longer who I once was but something new
someone reborn in flesh unfamiliar
to long parted from she whom bore me
to long chained by he whom owns me
my debt
time time to think and realize
that highs and lows belong to those lost at sea
I'll never be, One of Them
My anchor strong, deep and sunken true
but my chains are weak, torn and crude
The sea calls to me
in sleep and waking hour
my heartaches
like a sunless flower
snipped and placed upon your head
I know you will guide me
like I once did
to a calling, a voice, my fate
a story to tell
a smiling face
crashing waves
a beautiful place
where I will one day die
with you by my side
a river wide
with tears and love and sweat and blood
and when they look to us they'll think of love
they'll think of love
