Can We Live In Harmony
You moved ever so gently over me
a tempestuous wind stirring my senses.
And I, always the nonchalant sea,
lost the ability to flow in normalcy
We were two impetuous forms of nature.
Could we ever learn to live in harmony?
You blew across my tranquil waters
spilling my treasures upon the shore.
Then your breath was stilled...
I felt the force of your presence no more.
No moon had ever governed my tides
the way your winds brushed my soul.
I'd never been so swept away,
never had I given up full control.
My waters ebbed in the wrong direction
and there was no peace upon my waves.
Is this what happens to ill-fated lovers
when their hearts bleed in watery graves?
