I feel your heartbeat in your waves
I can hear your voice, a quiet song in the distance
I see your glimmering eyes when I stare into your depths
You take my breath away
You steal the oxygen from my lungs and you turn it into fire,
and I choke on the smoke you force into me
And I thank you, O Mother,
I thank you for your aggression,
For if not for your wrath, we might simply shrug away your might
We still sail our ships into your hair,
and throw our waste into your intestines,
but you could swallow us whole if you wished,
So I thank you for your mercy
