Endless waves,

Endless water,

Endlessly raging against an ever-changing shore.

Endlessly hoping for a peaceful end,

Endlessly beginning again and again.

Then suddenly,

A splash of cold reality,

Green and white with a hint of blue.

Out of my mind and into the sea,

Physically wet but happy to be.

Nature's showing endlessly more,

As endless waves crash against the endless shore.

Endless waves,

Endless water,

Endlessly raging against an ever-changing shore.

Endlessly hoping for a peaceful end,

Endlessly beginning again and again.

Then suddenly,

A splash of cold reality,

Green and white with a hint of blue.

Out of my mind and into the sea,

Physically wet but happy to be.

Nature's showing endlessly more,

As endless waves crash against the endless shore.
