Cold
I lean against the bed
Watching the waves wash away your wakefulness
Your breath steady as the tide
Your eyes drifting away
Away from mine
Into beautiful serenity
Dreams of sunlight and calm seas
And you relax fully
Succumbing to the rhythm
The waves crashing against the sand
I gaze
Longing
Would that this moment could last
Beyond our limits
Beyond the sea
The time we have left.
And so peaceful you are
My love, my darling
Dreaming
Beyond my watery world
Beyond the reaches of my sadness
I wish I could be here with you
Every night like this
To hold your hand as the currents
carry us towards the horizon,
Gradually,
Like the way I fell in love with you.
