Shoreline After a Storm

Out on the water, night is getting full
Moonlight sings her lullaby, Selkie slips along
Waves lapping lightly, ocean's taken form
No lightening and thunder
Shoreline after a storm

Beach is broken, boat is unmanned
Nature's destruction with her terrible hand
Shapes of arbutus, ragged and torn
No guests in this garden
Shoreline after a storm

I see you from my boat, but I cannot land
And I can't keep drifting here, along this sand
For though I seek a harbour
You just won't open your hand

After it's all over, hurt has made its cleft
Underbelly scarred I'm the shape of all that's left
Confused and asunder, ragged forlorn
Your weight has pulled me under
Shoreline after a storm
Shoreline after a storm
