Tide

The sea fell in love

With the moon

Because of the darkness

 

Every night

The sea stared up

And wished for a glimmer

To dance across its waves

And make it feel

Like something precious

 

The moon saw this

And every night

Wished to stroke silver

Across its skin

 

The moon fell in love

With the sea

Because of the darkness

 

Cold and drifting

Through space

As empty as

Its heart, with

Loneliness burning

Like a solar flare

 

The sea saw this

And every night

Reached and rose

Wishing to touch the sky

 

Intangible lovers

Never touching

Eternal lovers

Never stopping

Find peace at the line

Of the horizon

Thank you Stephen! I rewrote this a couple times because it never sounded right to me, so I'm glad you like it.
