themes: love, hope, persistence

like the ocean waves i was pulled into you

for every time the shoreline pushed me back

i always came rushing forth again

making my home in the foamy embrace

the storm thrashed us around

and tried to break my steady gaze

but here we stand once again

afloat on the hope of our hearts

in these moments of serenity

hold my hand as dawn breaks

and we will never be thrown overboard

until the day you wish me away

i will be here every sunrise

kissing the horizon of your mouth
