Out on the water, night is getting full Moonlight sings her lullaby, Selkie slips along Waves lapping lightly, ocean's taken form No lightening and thunder Shoreline after a storm Beach is broken, boat is unmanned Nature's destruction with her terrible hand Shapes of arbutus, ragged and torn No guests in this garden Shoreline after a storm I see you from my boat, but I cannot land And I can't keep drifting here, along this sand For though I seek a harbour You just won't open your hand After it's all over, hurt has made its cleft Underbelly scarred I'm the shape of all that's left Confused and asunder, ragged forlorn Your weight has pulled me under Shoreline after a storm Shoreline after a storm
