A Lovers Lament

A lover`s lament

By austere shore
I linger.
Look skyward
try to read the pattern
of a rapidly
changing sky.
Light and dark
painted the sea
first grey 
and then blue again
I call your name,
because you are
where sea and heaven
merge.
To read your silence,
I must first understand 
what is in my heart?
