I came up from the dark without you, 
and every day has been in shadow. 
I have begged the tide to wash away my sin, 
and take me to you … in the dark. 
but every day, I surface again. 
but in the spring, I’m betrayed by the new earth. 
with you in my heart, then i’m borne again a green bud. 
I am borne again … blooming.
