La Mer
(One of my rare forays into romance)
Alone at sea,
Whisper's a wind
"Don't break this dream".
A Voice closes in.
You move like water,
New shapes, new scenes.
I fall in further.
My sky is your sea.
No weight at all.
Float/fly this sea.
They call love the fall,
I name it dream.
This melts on the tongue the way love is meant to. Exquisite!
"My sky is your sea." WOW, I adore that line. I recently flew in a plane for the first time, and that was one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. The only thing I could think is wow, there really is an ocean above us, below us, all encompassing.
In the context of love, I think this metaphor plays out so well. Two seemingly different worlds colliding, sharing, and existing together in the same infinity. Great work!
