My lover of the sea...

Beneath the vast misty ocean lies love deep

 

 

 

 

Sweet sounds move over me

Their soft breeze slowly passing me by

The darkness of the night softly coming

With all before me.. I send my sigh.

 

 

For how much I have loved

Oh, one could never do count

For moments become years

With them tears fall in great amount.

 

 

I search the wide ocean

My eyes vacant for I know what is not there

My love.... My one and only

My heart... Oh Lord it is so bare.

 

 

Each night I come to this very spot

Each day which now has slowly passed into years

Yet can I stop?

Soft laughter, simple.. Then what of the tears.

 

 

For no love have I ever known

Felt so deep within, that it tore through me

My heart.. Oh what sweetness I held

Passion of wonder joyfully taking to see.

 

 

His heart.. Soul... All he sent forth

My lover of the sea 

The vastness, emptiness

Which was for only he.

 

 

Five years had passed, yet not my love

For still I come and wait

The smell of Oceans breeze filling me

The touch of the water keeps me sedate.

 

 

Eyes vacant, I stare off into the horizon

Tears softly falling unchecked

My tongue reaches forth

The salty taste mingling with my tears of wet.

 

 

Upon my cheeks, face, lips so needful

Oh my love, I whisper

I so miss you...

 

 

My Love.. My one and only..

 

My heart..

 

 

My lover of the sea...

Such a very beautiful write here, I can feel the longing.

There is something so romantic, in a haunting sort of way of thoughts of a lover standing by the shore of the ocean while searching for lost memory of a love now gone, yet remaining vigilent and hopeful that someday he shall return! Your words seem to draw him closer in heart as we feel her pain, understand her lamentations! As the ocean waves lick the shore, she licks tears from her brow!
Well done!
