A dance across the ocean water.
In the the water ridden cabin, we bailed.
Floating now to a deserted island.
Desolate of everything but nature,
In the beauty of itself.
Survival, steady love.
As it grows, we grow and find ourselves
Washed ashore to find the meaning.
What we came for is forgotten.
Now as we learn how to live, we make discoveries.
Through skill and working we notice the change.
The change is not only shown in subtle differences, but felt.
Now we look at what we noticed we were,
And now have become.
As we watch the sun set past the dolphins,
We saw the light.
But were not in acceptance of the freedom of going back.
Our decision was to remain, as we returned to what we had built.
The better choice has turned our eyes to what we are now,
Stranded in the midst of love, happy.
Floating now to a deserted island.
Desolate of everything but nature,
In the beauty of itself.
Survival, steady love.
As it grows, we grow and find ourselves
Washed ashore to find the meaning.
What we came for is forgotten.
Now as we learn how to live, we make discoveries.
Through skill and working we notice the change.
The change is not only shown in subtle differences, but felt.
Now we look at what we noticed we were,
And now have become.
As we watch the sun set past the dolphins,
We saw the light.
But were not in acceptance of the freedom of going back.
Our decision was to remain, as we returned to what we had built.
The better choice has turned our eyes to what we are now,
Stranded in the midst of love, happy.
