Oceans

Your hair ripples like the waves The calm before the storm, before everything caves. Your eyes, the likeness of constellations That brighten my life, and those of all the nations. Your laugh is gentle like the rain rippling on the surface of the ocean Your graceful face shatters any notion That nothing can exist as pure And still endure The test of time Throughout the years Through the crashing waves And floods of tears You flood me with joy. You calm the storm inside me, And I’ll never drown Because you’ll always be beside me.
