Leave it

Leave it on the shore.
Kids in the shallows and the old men in clay carts.
Nobody counting now, the day gets hard.
A grill on the beach and a baseline warm.
This little pocket where you're safe from the storm.
I forgot what it felt like to breathe this deep,
The kind of easy that you get to keep.
Whatever's weighing, set it down slow.
The ocean's gonna take it where the worries go.
Leave it on the shore, leave it on the shore.
