Ocean

The sun sets on the ocean, and the moonlight paints the land The evening tide then pushes forward, clutching grains of sand I dip my toes into the water, and close my eyes within the night My naked body, wet, and cool, for the first time feels... alright

Numbness leaves like autumn leafs floating gingerly down, Time is removing your frown and lifting your sullen soul so that finding new love is your goal.
