I Am Surrounded By An Ocean

Written by Dave Winnyk on 5/1/2022

I Am Surrounded By An Ocean

When my head is underwater

Submerged in the rapids of life

My arms grasp for dryness

Whatever works to get me breath


If I can be comfortable

Holding my breath

I can find the shore.


But my mind is hot

With wetfire

Boiling all the water around me

I must get out

I must get out


If I can be comfortable

Feeling on fire

I can find the shore


But it all must be done

My life is at stake

A convulsion away

From sucking in my surroundings

And floating with the currents


If I can be comfortable

Leaving this life

I can find the shore.
