When Relationships Sink…

You drown in sorrow deeper than the sea;
that knot inside your chest, you can't undo.
Come dawn, new ships will moor along the quay.

Through stormy nights, your loss is all you see;
fierce winds have ripped away your love from you.
You drown in sorrow deeper than the sea.

Life isn't always beach and shady tree;
sometimes you sail when skies are not so blue.
Come dawn, new ships will moor along the quay.

How could you lose that which was meant to be,
when seas are vast, and soul mates seem too few?
You drown in sorrow deeper than the sea.

Why can't you see how they have set you free,
by giving you a chance at life anew?
Come dawn, new ships will moor along the quay.

True love is treasure with a cryptic key;
with luck, you'll find the perfect match for you.
You drown in sorrow deeper than the sea;
come dawn, new ships will moor along the quay.


Hear me read this aloud:
