a few more lines

tie me to the sea

a monument built
to the sky
a sun
burns overhead
its no small thing
to cut off ones hands
i will place mine at my side
i will hold onto yours forever
i was dead once
the wind blew
the water covered my face
i could breathe still
i can breathe always
there is blood life
circular motion
i see no end there is no end

  1. Water is a classic symbol of emotion, and the larger the body of water, the deeper the emotion felt. The image of breathing under water relates to being inside the womb, when we breathed liquid. Very intersting, Nathan!
