My Ocean

Like summer sun upon the water So intense I shield my eyes You and me, perfect reflections Souls found from forgotten lives No words can truly tell The beauty of your face Or recreate the feeling Of such a warm and peaceful place You invigorate my soul Like ocean air upon the breeze I am a child in the sand You always bring me to my knees Like tumbling waves upon the coast Captivate my wandering eyes The rhythm of your movement Can lure and hypnotize Your body is an ocean Strong with rippling waves But underneath is calm Quiet, deep and full of caves I’m in wonder of your secrets Your current pulls me inside I could get lost in these caverns Drowning in your rising tide Then nighttime falls upon you Cool, soft sands and gleaming light I yearn to never leave your shores I become a part of you tonight As I gaze upon my blanket Of the night sky and the sea I find you are my North Star Pointing me toward who I will be Travelers come to feel a part Of your heavenly presence for a time But I yearn to be the only one That can truly call you mine
