my love is an ocean
deep and wide
my skies monumental
my storms, my tides
my depths may frighten you
you might imagine
I’ll drown you
drag you under

you might question your wishes
as I rise and fall
but I promise you
from the top that is never still
reflects light into prisms
transforms those into jewels
to the leviathan bottom that holds
this world in place
I only surrender to love
never play at it

I beg you, sail upon me
never fear me, dive deep into me
I will lift you, sustain you
bring you so many hidden treasures
you’ll wonder if my love can
possibly end

to which I’ll reply
time will tell
I’m only an ocean
nothing’s eternal
but I strive to impress
