You were my ocean...
Shipwrecked in uncharted waters
Your hands became guides in a sea of fire
Your touch like a wave washing over me
Awakening the world around me ...
A new song murmured seductively by the wind
“Pull me in, hold me tight, tease me with your fingers ... bring me to life “ it sang as the boat rocked.

The fog rolled in unknowingly threatening paradise
Compass no longer pointing north
You’re kind brown eyes my north stars dimmed
My bearings no longer clear ... lost at sea
Treading the waters of uncertainty and doubt
I promise I tried to swim through the rip currents of silence
Ignore the roars of the winds that now shouted “talk to me,hear me... be part of my world...”

In the eye of the storm I thought
The warmth of your smile would shine down
Your sweet soft kisses would revive me
Keeping me anchored in your world...

Eyes still closed a river of peace moved through her. She knew the storm had passed.

The sun began it’s slow decent into the now tranquil waters.
Alone I sat watching the colors dance...liberated and free they danced brilliantly across the vast sky .

I let you go , you are free no longer bound by me.
But my ocean that you will always be she thought as she walked away...
