How I long to return to the ocean 

My love, I am in devotion to this body of water

A daughter of the sea 

The magic of its depths 

As it touches me, I am blessed 

The beauty and the mess 

The waves and their tests 

How I long to be home 

Learning from all that it knows 

Holding me in my pain, my woes 

Rebirthing me so that I can grow 

Oh, how I long to return to the ocean 

Rest in its gentle motion 

Drown the outside commotion

Oh how I must return to the ocean 

Feel its embrace 

I must make haste 

So that I can return to my home 

Never there, do I feel alone
