A blink of warmth in the night, longing for relief

Conversations all start small, thoughts always fleeting

A random dream or a conversation

Too long because you don’t wanna stop

Time together feeling like a warm bath

Or the cool respite of ocean water from burning sun or blistering sand

Love like an ocean follows the wind 

Flowing and flowing

Reclose waves poison cold days

Your smile hides in between gloomy clouds

Without a word spoken as we pass

Your message is sent loud and clear

No light house or distant safe haven to run to

You were a lighthouse once

I lost you to time and now I’ve lost myself to the sea
