Love's Sacrifice
Love's Sacrifice

Faith assured us that our nascent lungs were there,
So love propelled us onto the silent beach,
Where we tried to breath through gills unfit for air,
And lay dying in the sand beyond the high tides reach.

Love's sacrifice was not forgotten,
Our painful deaths were not in vain,
Our decomposing bodies, rotten
Fed the soil plants to sustain.

Again love pushed us onto the beach,
There faith encouraged our lungs to breath,
A new life was within our reach,
And our ocean womb we now could leave.
