Soul Surfer
October 11, 2012
The pounding of waves
Thrashing, crashing
A pounding in my heart
Like the rhythm of the ocean
The touch of water
A ripple in my soul
Like a mothers touch
It sets me free
The salt of the sea
A breath of fresh air
A love so vast and mighty
I tingle with joy
The water rises,
Devouring my face
Another breath of air
I rise to the top
Grip the ocean with white knuckles
And breathe in
This is who I am
Part of the ocean
Nothing can contain me
I am a surfer
