Structures loomed over indecisive tide
to grant approaching vessels a warning light,
but this vessel ignored their granted sight
when her heart cries called him to sit beside.
Lighthouses pointed home to be his guide
as he held her on the rocks until night,
the vessel's heart learned of the towers' fright
as the cold replaced her warmth at his side.

Expecting crushing on the rocky shore
left, unexpected, the falling of heart,
and his spirits when time came to depart
back to the lives that they had known before.

Beacons could not shine brighter than her eyes
that brought love to a heart as tides did rise.
