Mighty grey-blue waves
Foaming and seething,
Breaking against jagged rocks
They swallow me whole

I am tossed and turned;
I am pushed and pulled
I no longer know
Which way is up

I gasp for air,
But am met with more of the ocean
Burning my lungs

But I hold on
To the last thread of life
My legs become strong;
My will becomes stronger,

And I fight
I fight for the little girl
Who laughed, carefree
I fight for the little girl
Who made it this far

I fight for those
Who showed me the light

And most importantly,
I fight
For me.

I kick harder,
My hands push down
The turbulent swirls
And surge upwards

The waves no longer control me

I see it
I see the surface,
Scattered with fractured moonlight
Guiding me through the blue

I'll use my strength,
I'll rise up
And when I do,
I'll let the stormy grey waves
Carry me ashore

~Just hold on~
