lyrics

Salvation
I sit and watch the waves come in
I feel them break over my skin
I'm drifting out to sea

At first I was afraid to be alone,
but then you rescued me.
I thought I was at my end,
but new beginnings are what you made me see.
One day the light will leave our eyes,
But we'll know what it meant to be alive.

After the passing of of a very close friend last year, I sunk to a very low place. I was having a lot of trouble feeling optimism about a future that seemed very dark. This being stated, as low as I got, there was a group of friends that stuck by me every step of the way and helped me work through the tremendous loss that I had to learn to deal with. When I saw the situation in retrospect, I saw how powerful the "Salvation" that we gain from the people who love and care about us is. I would like to hope that everyone gets to experience that in their lifetime, because to me, knowing that people care with that depth is one of the most powerful things that people can experience. Realizing how powerful friendship and love can be has also helped me be a better friend (or at least a more active, aware, and involved friend) to the people that I care about.
