i am the girl

i am the girl
who runs with waves, dances on sand, and worships the wind.
i live for the sun and prey for the storm.
i find happiness everyday and strength in every wave.

i see the love
i feel the light
i'd steal for swell
i live for flight.

the claw-like hand that one would dread
i hold it high over my head
then push beneath to glide below
watching time slow with each new blow

i kick my tail to surface through
the salt and grime... i've done my time
in years i sit and dream of spit
to send me through another day.

i yearn for love, but am too consumed
these waves i'll take into my tomb.
am i normal? i don't care.
call me careless. let me share.
