Her roots
Her roots
Her roots dug into her
Just like the sand dug deep under the sea
It’s dug so deep, some cannot even see.
Just like the ocean knows what’s Underneath
She knows what others may never believe.
She knows the waves are what will always make the way.
She knows the tides are the only way to survive
She follows the sounds of the shore crashing down.
For in those sounds, is how she will find ground.
