Steadfast In Love

As tides roll in, persuaded by the moon Your heart directs my journey to love’s shore Harmonic lunar altitudes attune And swirling waves join souls forevermore. Amidst this cycle one thing I must mend: As all too soon the sea recedes again. My love lies weakened, distant at shore’s end Until assured by pledge that you’ll remain. But how am I to overcome this force And stay steadfast, not washed away by tides? I beg you ne’er allow me to change course ‘Til arms entwined adjoin where love resides. So when the sea recedes then rejoins land Our hearts will ne‘er subside; ’gainst tides we’ll stand.
