The Ocean

The Ocean

You made the distance far and vast

To be sure I wouldn’t visit

There’s now an ocean between us,

And I’m surely drowning in it.

Memory’s Prisoner

Staring through the window

But I can’t seem to let you go

Everything’s reminding me

Of what it was we used to be

Where She Resides

Her love caused my heart to swell

While trapped inside her scented cell

Of distant nights and moonlight rides

My heart is where she resides

Not You

She’s smart, witty, funny, kind

She’s sort of a dream come true

Her love’s one I’d hope to find

And yet, she’s still not you…

About Her

She has the best smile

And never even tries

The sweetest little giggle

With the softest loving eyes…

Triumph

You came about and as I recall,

The challenges were great, obstacles tall

The traps were laid so that you may fall,

But instead you rose above it all.
