Rescued from the Storm

Standing on a crag Frozen against the storm Wrap another layer on Rain biting through me Throwing coins to the waves Trading hope for affection Thunder without lightning Blind on wet rocks You pull up alongside me Drawing back the clouds Peeling off the wet layers Baring my skin to the Sun Taking me below decks Holding me while I shiver Safe and warm in your embrace Melting into your beauty I had prayed For the waves to snatch me Take me beneath their black peaks Bury me on the seafloor Now I dream of flying Above the sea Lighter than air itself Straight into your heart
