Swim when your heart is open

Swim when your heart is open

Swim when your heart is broken

Swim when the darkness of the sky matches the colour of your mood

Swim when the azure blue of the deep is in keeping with the shade of your soul

Let the salt of your tears meet the salt of the ocean and merge in an eddy of release

May the parts of you that hurt be soothed by a gentle, lapping wave

And when you smile, may the tide rise to welcome your joy
