A lighthouse I share a coast with reaches out and takes my hand I breath the soft air the ocean offers, staying away from water I can’t separate from dark, stormy sky
They say, when it rains To look for rainbows But there is no light but the periodic flash of my lighthouse And the angle is wrong
They say, when it’s dark, to look for stars But the storm clouds are thick Scattering light So I cannot chase it
A lighthouse I share a coast with reaches out to another and warns them Of the rocks and cliffs And for a moment I meet its eye before It grasps another’s hand
