Hey, I’m tired, let me sleep,
Wrapped in your cozy land, cold breeze, warm keep.
I miss your ocean’s soothing roar,
Silencing my worries, calming my core.
I long to hear your birds sing their song,
Transporting me to dreams, where love is strong.
But I’ve harmed you, my toxic tie,
Choking your beauty, denying your sigh.
Sorry, for all I’ve done,
Exploiting your gifts, beneath the sun.
I’ve taken everything, given back pain,
Leaving scars, causing your beauty to wane.
Can you forgive me? Grant me rest?
Let me recharge, find my nest.
I promise to heal, to mend my ways,
To cherish your beauty, in brighter days.
