Awakened

My special other,
She sits beside me in the twilight’s embrace, 
We watch the sun take a sink in its somber mood, 
The ocean view, 
A delight to our sight,
The running waters,
A rhythm to our ears,
When feet kiss water,
A relaxing and unruffled flow permeates,
The world’s weight plummets,
Where sky becomes ocean,
Our dreams come out of their hiding,
They take flight skywards,
They soar unbounded.
