Saltwater runs in my veins, and I need to get back to the Gulf.
Sometimes the old pain comes back, like a ghost haunting me.
I'm not afraid of the storms. They're part of the rhythm of the place I love.
The sky is the only thing that stays the same in my life.
I don’t want to be a bird in a cage, I want to be a bird in the sky.
Sometimes I pretend the water will take me away, and I’ll be gone from here forever.
The wind is my witness; it carries my secrets and my dreams.
The water is where I feel most like myself, free and unburdened.
The sea has a way of washing away everything but what’s important.
Some stories are only for the sea to hear, and I’m okay with that.
The sea doesn’t care who you are; it takes what it wants and leaves the rest behind.
In the storm, I find solace. It’s where I’m most alive.
