I wrote this after watching the movie ‘True Spirit’ on Netflix. I had been lost in a place I hadn’t been in before swinging in my yoga hammock. When I came back to the presence of my normal I realized I was very comfortably lost in the swinging in the dark with my eyes closed as a normal. I knew what to write after I saw Jesse’s story. I knew my body was pleasantly, comfortably accepting the new normal about to come and I embraced it. I wanted to share this but couldn’t figure out how to word it.
“Sailing In the Sea”
I sit here rocking
Though I know you’re still with me
I caught a moment when you weren’t
I wasn’t scared for that time
Just lost in a beautiful place
I was sailing in the sea
Chorus
It’s like sailing in the sea
Just swinging here in my swing
Losing my sight is like
Sailing in the sea
Verse
I know now
Not to be afraid
It comes on so slowly and comfortably
It’s just like sailing in the sea
Mother Mary thank God I believe
this voyage comes so easily
I know all my faith
has brought me to this calm place
Chorus
It’s like sailing in the sea
Lost in a beautiful place
losing my sight
Is like sailing in the sea
Verse
And when the dark all happens
I’ll know I’m in a safe comfortable place
Cuz I feel it now
Rocking in my swing with my eyes closed
Bridge
I’m locked up in this feeling
I’m closed in this thought
I know I’m safe and secure
no matter what happens now
Chorus
It’s like sailing in the sea
Just swinging here in my swing
Losing my sight is like
Sailing in the sea
