I Sought After...

I sought after the ocean waves, their beauty glistened in the moonlight, I raced the ever changing tide, beneath the eyes of twilight. I kissed the vermillion rose petals, like rubies in the sand, But nothing that I chased, compared to the touch of your hand. I ran to catch the fading rain, as it fell into the sea, I pushed my toes beneath the sand, willingit to love me. I glimpsed a shooting star, that shattered the sky above, But nothing that I found, replaced the beauty of your love. I chased the first light of dawn, as it stretched across the sky, Crashing into midnight, as the stars began to die.
