Ocean lullaby

With eyes closed
I lay me down unto the blanket of sand

Slowly, I open myself up to the rush

The night sky above us sparkling
We watch them intensely
As we try to make sense of this time,
This moment that time has left behind

In our own resilient little bubble
Aware of only each other,
Your eyes gently gaze into mine
As I search your face for a meaning

My oxygen supply gradually empties
As more escapes in every exhale

Burning Fire seems to tear up through my bloodstream
While your fingertips tenderly caress my cheek

I let this rush swallow me whole
Enjoying this sudden enraged heat
As it surges through every molecule

...Seeing you squirm
I know you feel it too

Nothing makes sense...

We're two strangers
Stretched out across each other
Inhaling each others' sweet aroma
As each wave seems to break

Yet, here I am
Finding myself in your stare
As you look into my soul
And seem to find what you're looking for, too

It's as you're reaching out to me
And enveloping my face in your embrace
At this frame in time...
That everything finally makes sense...
And appears to fall right into place.
