You were the ocean, as I flicker my warmth back to you , I am reminded of your pure power and I stare in awe as the tide comes out to meet me. Distracted by your beauty I don't realize as my flame is put out. I can no longer radiate light as you pull me back and forth beneath the brightening moon. I stood alone as you sank away, abandoning me without the light I once so proudly shone. I prayed to be tossed once more among your waves not understanding you were the cause of this bitter coldness. Oh how I waited for you, but you never returned, I was a drop of heat to you, absorbed and forgotten in an instant. Accepting your leave I attempted many times to relight my will. Still soaked to the bone I abandoned this fire, not yet returning to the ignorance of light, while abandoning the darkness you gave. I relinquished my time sitting on the beach and stood high above where I could clear my head of you. Never to be washed away by the forgetful sea. Dreaming of a day I shine brightly once more, alone and away from the forces fated to destroy me.
