Crumbling
salt spray, november gray
nothing stops the tide
heeding call of the milky way
nothing stops the tide
sea relentless, wave on wave
we're boulders...
boulders ground to sand
my walls are crumbling
my will is crumbling
my words are crumbling
my mind is crumbling
(can you hear me, crumbling?)
tightrope, balancing
quicksand at my feet
beach face washed with salt again
quicksand at my feet
waters rising, take a breath
there's seaweed...
seaweed in my hair
my walls are crumbling
my will is crumbling
my words are crumbling
my mind is crumbling
(can you hear me, crumbling?)

Dear K,
I’m psyched to hear this out to music. How come when I’m awake at 3 am I only want to eat? You write a song! Where’s the creative justice?! The refrain is so relative when you’re feeling out of sorts and cant get out of the drowning feeling. I love the relationship to the energy of the ocean. Can’t wait to hear the finished product.
Great write. H🌷

Thanks so much. The ocean is both energizing and humbling in the best way possible...
I can't wait to hear the finished product either! Recording is done and the sound wizard is mixing it.... 😁

So, who are you…really? Are you a famous singer? This is ah-maze-ing!!!!
You have a beautiful voice! I loved how you harmonized it and the melody is as beautiful as the words!!
Congratulations and you know what this means now right? We’ll be expecting more of these. 🎼
Awesome!!!

Thanks so much for your enthusiastic praise, H! I'm blushing. 😊
There's a method to my madness of sharing... if people expect me to make music, I might actually get over my nerves and do it... 😉

Bt busting out the tunes like a true Songsmith.
I absolutely feel your rhythm & vibe.
You connect!
...and I find myself singing your words to my own tunes in my head.
Sounds amazing too with the echo of your words reverberating in my empty skull, lol.
...not even kidding about singing your song, stuck in my head,
Love it!!!

Oooh, hello fellow musician! 😀 I always wished I was a drummer.
Thank you so much for your assessment & encouragement. Putting my words to music is new to me, and it's absolutely thrilling.
