The Tsunami claims my soul

Reality is drowned beneath the waves.

The bubbling crescendo

Sounding forth its mockery

At my resistance.

 

Anguished cries are muted

By the vast liquid’s gossamer grasp.

Each arching crest curves around my soul

Cocoon like it entraps me.

 

Explosive waves roar their obsession.

Each powerful white tipped crest

Rolls with the joy of loves persistent tattoo.

 

White water propels me headless

Towards destiny’s ocean

Its power rushes through my veins.

Tossing me over the edge of reason

The Tsunami consumes me in its passion.

 

Heart pounding within my rapturous journey

The water falls away into distant oblivion.

Suddenly I am ****** free of its tenuous hold

It’s vehemence crashing me against the scared shore.

There the marks of our passing remain a constant reminder

Cherished scars to be carried on loves momentous tide

 

Like a Tsunami come to claim the soul,

Love seeks my full surrender.
