Sea the Land

Waves are hurled from the sea Smacking the rocks with chaotic symmetry The sand is bothered yet not unmoved Unsure what the water tried to prove The sand settles down as it should be And the waves are called back by the sea The water whips and falls unforgiving A body of water truly living For this emotion could come from nothing less Than an angry soul caught in distress Hurt and reliving A cruel reality deceiving This pain is what throws the water around What makes the waves crash to the ground The sea is in love with the land And desperately tires to capture the sand There is no sadder sound Than a lover losing a love found But such is the tale of land and sea A constant struggle of crossed destinies As the water re-tracks, the land breaks apart Shaken to the core by its broken heart Like the water, the land wishes to be free And wants more than a kiss as the waves leave The land prays the water to return And extinguish the passion that burns Because the land is in love with the sea And curses the forces that wont let them be Dear reader, might you never learn What it truly means to want and yearn Each in love and unable to speak The sea dries up and the land grows bleak A tragedy given a voice Through pen marks and word choice In nonexistence, I believe them together Cosmically intertwined forever
