Your Love Became My Sea

I am a slave to your heart--

I am where I want to be.
Chain me to your soul,
come imprison me.

I was captured by your smile,
and held captive by your gaze--

throw away the key
for forty million days.

Your love became my sea
and I am going down...
to wait for your tsunami--

I can't wait to drown.

I got a different take on it, not so sad to drown in a womans love. Well done makes you think of the deeper meaning.
