Each wave soothes my hurt
Each wave that caresses my feet soothes my soul
Each grain of sand between my toes helps to fill the cracks in my heart
The sun’s rays bring new warmth back into my heart
The solitude of the ocean allows my broken body and soul peace and time to heal
Each wave crashing in on the shore pulls away the layers of pain and hurt and anger.
Each wave restores me just that little bit more.
The enormity of the ocean teaches me that there’s a vast world out there on the horizon
The pull of the waves against my legs reminds me that I am strong
The beach, the ocean…they are teaching me that it’s OK to feel alive and happy again
