my heart hangs heavier than gravity
pulling the tides higher
and taking me with
drifting farther from you
or closer
i cant tell sometimes

i remember sitting on that beach with you
that night,
i remember the calm
"its okay now,
i got you babygirl,
i know that sun was beating down on you all day"
you said
into the ebb and the flow
flying straight into my heart
and warming my every cell

i cant ever lose you...
i thought
and then i whispered it to the moon

would he be my moon now?
could he calm my restless seas?
or is this the calm before the storm?

that night
now a memory
as im casted out to sea
lost
your light
once shining my way through the darkness
now fading behind the clouds
where did you go
i whisper
but only i can hear it

im alone
im tired

in the dark, i wonder
will I ever see you again
will this storm ever settle
how do i get back onto solid ground?

i close my eyes
and let myself rest
the waves caressing me..
reminding me of your hands..
of your eyes,
diving into them
into you

i remember the calm
i remember your warmth
i remember your light

i open my eyes..
the clouds are gone

and there you are,
my moon

somewhere in this ocean,
in the deep wide blue
here i am,
Staring up at you.. my moon,

and suddenly im home.
