My Love

You call yourself an island boy Though you've barely left the shore. Still, I can see the resemblance Because your eyes shine like stars on the water And you're as steadfast as the cliffs Buffeted by heaving tides. Your arms are as warm as the summer sand And I forget to breath when I watch you sleep So I feel the peace of drowning As I'm pulled into the depths of utter devotion To you.
