These waves are as beautiful as they are daunting,
as majestic as they are strong.
With every rush is the promise
to cleanse and to crush.

Never let it drown you,
and fill your lungs,
and stop your heart,
and kill your soul,
and seize your hopes.

For I will be with you.
We will stay afloat
and rise back to surface.
Once more,
we will learn to ride the tides
over and over again.
