…on your endless sea

In my dreams I am always drifting on your endless sea
where hopes are built on shifting shores
where your steady tides in constant returning
moan and whisper while they weather away stone
returning bright glimpses of light
that disappear into in the darkness as waves upon the shore
or sink into the deep darkened pools of your endless sea
there is a song resounding in my heart
and as the moon commands your endless sea
my love for you has conquered me
I have succumbed to your breathless sighs
to the rise and fall of your restless sea
like a river I long to flood over you
and become as one with the ceaseless churning cauldron
and the numberless peaks of your pulsing endless sea
under these darkened skies I am embraced by infinity itself
and as the world grows calm the heavens are weeping
tears of cooling, soothing rain
forever filling and refreshing the depths
of our endless loving sea
