Light House

I'll walk the shoreline with you,
  look behind to see, two footprints in the sand
  washed away by the incoming tides,
salted air and sea foam breezes
  rush a chill upon the stetched out land
  looking out upon the ocean from safe land;

here lay quiet and still renewed,
  buried deep within the marriage bands
  all the secrets that we hide,
cast deep and burrowed yet finally eases
  those memories we held within our hands
  where time and love linked firmer hands;

walk a little further in the evening hues,
  let dusk set the sun light where we stand
  bond us together in the sea where life abides,
stand brave and bold beneath as life seizes
  the light house and the harbor grand
  bow to the lives we live well planned.
