We’re Ocean and Forest People

We are as relentless as waves, we can be more horror striking than the tempest;

We’re often as daunting as being turned around in the monotony of the woods tossing in unrest.

There is a mystery in the depths of your thoughts, a wonder that roars and crashes;

A whirling madness you and I; as a consolation, mediocrity escapes our limbs as the wind rushes and lightning flashes.

But We’re Ocean and Forest People

We kiss the grit on the shore and wash back past the pain;

He’s carved His name on every tree within us, His density has consumed our shame.

The forest can seem like a masterful prison of the past,

The ocean reminds us that they were just lessons that rinse all that is brass.

As complicated as it may be… We Are Ocean and Forest You And Me.
