A love poem about learning to let go |
Your celestial presence drifts up Ownership, no one can gain Understanding my place I drown, with no sense of pain Forever longing to rise above the ocean's crest Love's lust up wells a typhoon of passion's test Oblivious to the rocks the sea obscures Attached beyond help to your radiant light To drift along, hidden by the night Always I remain here, pulled by the sea Bellowing words quieted by the oceans breeze Outdated my body slowly decays Virtuously your body drifts away Enticing my soul as your glow recedes the day When these tides begin to pull Heaven reminds me I need to let go I must sever the seaweed binds that hold me tight Longing to be free of your heavenly sight Emotions quenched as I sink, putting up no fight In time I shall forget, yet your eyes will carry me forever So sadly I watch you drift peacefully above Interpersonally you radiate outwards love Never faltering, like the sun in the sky Knowing all too well you will never die Buoyantly you float above Enduring bliss, an unseen love Longing for one last gaze Obscuring dusk, you disappear behind the haze While I sink to the bottom of the wave |
