Your love is like the ocean

An endless sea of soft waves

Flowing over me, caressing

Cooling the fire that burns

Inside of me, I hear the roar

Like the tide, it crashes down

Then, recedes, into the deep

Let me drink of you, taste

The saltiness of your skin

The ebb and flow of desire

It knows no depth, my love

Only that we became one

Two souls united, our tiny grains

Blended, with the sands, sublime

Waves churned and water crashed

A rowboat, on the ocean, thrashed

Skies were calmer, to the east

But to the west, there hailed a beast

Clouds of black had filled the sky

No chance for those aboard to try

To make it to land, safely ashore

Seems the boat, could take no more

Winds attacked, from every angle

In the storm, the timbers mangled

Caught, upon the choppy seas

The ocean tossed it, as it pleased

All that remained, was a beacon of light

That shined, ever brightly, into the night

It was quite unexpected, made her unsteady

Weak in the knees, though she knew, she was ready

The icy cold water, was nothing to fear

The wave took her under, freedom was near

She didn’t fight it, it was what she awaited

Back to the sea, where her life was created

No longer wishing to be human, unkind

She knew now, to never leave the ocean behind

The pearl of the sea, she trusts him
Yet, it’s only his hand she can see

Hesitant to let go of her gem
She waits for a sign, his plea

He does not want the opalescence
Only what she hides, in her shell

The maiden, is his only desire
And her heart begins to swell

Every man before him
Wanted only to reap the reward

Pearls, from the mermaid, who guards them
Leaving the lady, unexplored

But he finds the beauty, within her
Nacre holds nothing, compared

To the woman, who lives below the surf
His love for her now declared

There once was a fish named Fiona
Who loved to tease the men at sea

She would move in closely, grab the bait
Then suddenly, she would, break free

Fiona, you see, was quite a fidget
Didn’t like hanging around for long

She’d patiently wait for a nibble or two
Then leave them wondering where they went wrong

The poor fisherman didn’t see it
No matter how hard they gave it a try

Fiona would never let them get her
For the odds, she would surely defy

Until the day, there came another
A sly young bloke, on the shore

He baited the hook, Fiona grabbed it and shook
Now she no longer fidgets anymore
