Salt Bloom

Salt air waking on my skin

Blue hush holding every breath

I feel the slow rise begin

A faint spark stirring under death

Cold light slips across the tide

A thin line cutting through the gray

I hear the quiet open wide

Calling me out of yesterday

Salt bloom carry me through

Where the night kept every truth

Let the shoreline wash the hollow

Salt bloom show me what is true

Footprints fading where I stand

Soft waves folding over shame

Something bright beneath the sand

Writes my name without the blame

Wind lifts echoes from the deep

Old fears breaking into foam

Every dream I tried to keep

Finds a path back toward home

Salt bloom carry me through

Where the night kept every truth

Let the shoreline wash the hollow

Salt bloom show me what is true

Light breaks open slow and clear

Painting fire on the undertow

I step out of what I feared

Into places only morning knows

Salt bloom carry me through

Where the night kept every truth

Let the shoreline wash the hollow

Salt bloom show me what is true

Salt bloom calling me home

Salt bloom where the lost things glow
