Ocean and Shore

I am an ocean of problems, 
With raging gulfs of anxiety, 
Thunderstorms of fears, 
Coral reefs of loneliness
In me all the time, 
And in this turmoil
I saw you as a shore, 
Calm and composed, 
A harbor for my troubles, 
A resting place in peace, 
Day after day I tried
To be with you, 
An endless attempt
To touch you with
My waves of love
But my every attempt failed
As after every touch I trailed
Back into the depths of my solitude.
