When I was young

I'd dream of all the oceans

I'd never see



And then I got a little a older

And I realized that even I

Could purchase a plane ticket

And dip my toes

In any liquid paradise

I desired



And then I got older still

And I realized

My thirst to see the world

Was easily quenched

By simply

Looking into your eyes



I've drowned in you

And I never want

To breathe again



How fortunate am I

To have found both

The sun and the sea

In the gaze of another
