Shallow Dreams

~ falling the depths of a lasting decision I wade through the sea where your charm leaves a wake in the ripples of love that I watch in the distance from gently tossed stones where the shallow dreams break as I follow this stream to the edge of the surface I breathe in the hope left alone on the shore just to drown in the truth that the shallow dreams offer and swim to your arms in the deep end once more ~

Lovely ~ especially those last two lines. I could live there, I think, in the deep waters. It's where I feel most at peace.

You write a lot about the sea, you live on the coast? I thought you were close to Austin, any way I'm rambling, beautiful write as always.
