I listen to the sound of waves crashing outside
I cannot sleep with such beauty so close to my door
I open the window and breathe deep the sea air
My feet can stand it no longer and carry me down the stone steps
Across the aching grass to the sand
I reach the sea and find her starring back at me
With eyes of green and fog
She looks at me with longing
She cannot sleep with such beauty at her shore
The sea air I breathed in now opens a window in my chest
The ocean calms and listens
Listens to the sound of waves crashing inside of me
