Darien Fields - sailboat

With each crest of a wave
Forming white crystal peaks
She weeps
Inhales
Lets go
Beneath a star studded vista
A resplendent guiding light
Arms open
Palms up
She is free
On a sailboat I am
Slowly floating nowhere
Lost the memories of
Where I am and why
Black ocean churning
A million stars a burning
Planetariums were
Right about the sky
Oh once upon a day
I set off on a journey
Wishing on a way
To take me far from home
Now I'm the waves
And I'm taking on water
Hard to see
I won't always be
Alone
There was a time when all the sun was
High and centered on me
But it dipped behind my back and settled down
I used to square up with the land
I used to size it in my hand
But it fell behind the line that meets the sky
And now I don't even try, yeah
I just wanna wake up somewhere I don't know
I just wanna take up some air on my own
And when I find it I swear that I'll know
Nothing is broke in
The path that I've chosen
I gave up that notion
So long ago
Oh so long as I go
Oh once upon a day
I set off on a journey
Wishing on a way
To take me far from home
Now I'm the waves
And I'm taking on water
Hard to see
I won't always be
Alone
The soothing sea winds
Carrying away her grief and sorrow
Hands posed in devotion
She smiles
In a seascape of serenity
Her baptism place of choice
She steps forward
Her new beginning
