Naked skies
on oceans blue
breathlessly shining love.
Brilliant sapphire,
my desire mirrored
through your hypnotic eyes
of misty grey.

Long strokes of yearning
welling up, spouting forth
into clear well-springs
of love-light shining.
You slip through my hands
a pure-watered joy
to touch, to drink in.

How is it my voice
is so distant, so faint
that you do not hear
my throbbing words
of wanting,
my anguished cries
of soul's dispersing?

Yet, my love
waits patiently for you
on eternal wings,
nearer to your ocean
than you could ever imagine,
waiting for that day when your sighs
sail back towards my seas.
