An Ocean's Interlude

Upon an ocean's view beheld
     While on its splended
              Shore;
Its crashing waves now call to me, 
     A peaceful gentle
              Lore.
     The wonder of its vast embrace
     Quells each resounding thought.
     To know that God created it,
      Its peace to me is brought. 

While high above the seagulls cry, 
     Their black eyes at me
             Stare.
They watch me quelled in sad regret, 
     My pain to all is
             Bare.
     Emotions flowing like the tide,
     They rise and fall each day;
     Yet here my feelings that I hide,
     Just gently float away.

Beneath each wave a world resides, 
     Just like my outer
             Skin;
Where all my pain and hurt resides,
     That rages fierce
             Within.
     The soft warmth of the sands embrace, 
      Bestills my aching heart;
      It helps to fill my loneliness
      Where you were once a part.

As days turn slowly into years, 
      Our love doth fade
             Away.
No longer can I guide our fate, 
      Then where the ocean
             Sway.
       Upon my heart you'll always dwell
       Just like the oceans shore;
        To find the ending of its reach;
             
             Our love that was...No more!
