I was drowning in a sea

One of many unknown things

I was alone

I was drowning in a sea

Beginning to grow tired

I am so cold

I was drowning in a sea

When I saw a little light in the distance

I couldn’t bring myself to hope

I was drowning in a sea

The light is attached to a boat

I wonder what their purpose in the world is

I was drowning in a sea

When we made eye contact

You moved the light forward to see me better

I was drowning in a sea

When a wave came

And everything was dark once more

I was drowning in a sea

When I heard a splash

I could no longer hear the sounds of a boat

I was drowning in a sea

Something surfaced next to me

Your eyes brighter than anything around

I was drowning in a sea

When you smiled

And grabbed my hand

I was drowning in a sea

Hand in yours

Warmer than I’ve ever been before

I was drowning in a sea

When I closed my eyes

And let the water swallow me

I was drowning in the sea

But I’ve woken on the shore

You hovering over me

I had been drowning in the sea

We stare at each other

You smile and so do I

I used to be drowning in the sea

Before you came along

And saved me
