Above Water (Original Poem)

My heart was sinking
In the depths of the sea.
My soul was drowning
In the realms of misery.
I began to listen...
I heard the seagulls,
The seagulls screaming
Someone would rescue me

Dolphins can swim,
When I'm with you
So can I.
I'm above water
You're the reason why.

My hopes were forgotten
In the midst of the sea
My trust floundering
Like a sinking fish
There is water everywhere
I have a mirage
There is a boat out there
Make me safe from the sharks

My dreams were shattered
Against the jagged rock
My spirit was gone
As the gulls began to mock
The waves were getting higher
But you pulled me ashore
Protecting me at the dock
Where I discovered love.
