it was my duty to part the red sea
i tried so hard but i couldn't do it so everyone drowned
and now away from that land in an exile of my own choosing
i feel at home nowhere
under scorching sun and bitter wind
i feel peace nowhere
unless under 3 feet of water
i don't drown
a curse realised after hours spent in the sea
desperately inhaling
i've learnt that it's my fate to be lost
washing up on your shores like glass
for i have no magic in me
i walk on untouched
sandy mountains at my back till the end of time
where i meet my maker and he tells me i've atoned enough
foolish dream
i will wear myself down to nothing
in that moment i will l feel joy
peace flooding my lungs like saltwater
i will go home
i will go home
