The Sea and Me

I tell my secrets to the Sea
It's just my favorite place to be

I walk the sand along the shore
I swear it must be heavens door

My breathing seems to ebb and flow
Just like the waves they come and go

I know my secrets safe to keep
She holds them tightly way down deep

I feel her beckon me to stay
Alas it is the end of day

But I'll return I promise soon
Who knows next time we'll share the Moon!

The Sea knows I'll return again
To walk her shores and be her friend

She waits there patiently for me 
To share my secrets sacredly....
