In your dark haunting eyes
I saw the storms you tried to hide
I saw where wild passion resides
billowing sails took you away
there was nothing more to say
no words, could make you stay
love just a rollin' wave
in a deep sea of mystic blue
you were a song driftin' away
dreamin' of you, all night through
you know it's true, true true
my heart always sailed to you, you, you
the universe bedazzled us
the melody of the sea tremulous
often we floated anchor-less
on cloudless nights, searching the sea
harmony seems to be off key
lost are the verses of you and me
love just a rollin' wave
in a deep sea of mystic blue
you were a song driftin’ away
dreamin' of you, all night through
you know it's true, true, true
my heart always sailed to you, you, you

What a wonderfully sea-infused love poem, Truedessa! I would like to hear it put to music.
ReplyDeleteThanks Kim for hearing it lyrically.
DeleteIt would be great set to music.
ReplyDeleteA troubled heart is challenged to stay true to love.
Alex, I think love is a challenge...
DeleteHow I would love to hear this sung! It's perfect for a song....the repetition, the sense of it...I can feel it rolling in a lovely mesmorizine tune!
