I love you like I love the ocean
The quiet tides hush my racing mind
And the sea brings me peace
It draws me in, even when it's cold,
Asking me to spread over my warmth.
It's calming
The push and the pull of the waves,
Rocking me into serenity
Not giving a care if I jump into
its salty waters unannounced
I can just be in its stillness
Floating amongst the whispered secrets of the birds and fish
And when it gets too rough
I can calmly sit at its shore, watching the tide
Feeling it come over my toes
And rushing away under my seat
Only to return moments later.
It's a constant, directed by the moon and winds
Natural forces that keep the balance
I love the ocean when I am away from it
Looking forward to when I can see it again
And leaving its waters forlorn, but happier than when I first arrived
Awaiting for the day, when I can be seaside for all time.
