The Ocean

We sat together.

Our stomachs turning

and heads in the clouds.

I glanced over my shoulder

and was whisked away by the wind.

Your heart beat on repeat

all summer long.

I love you.

The rain we saw

we knew it was coming

and together we danced

drenched in water the fell from the sky

it masked the tears we both hid.

We knew this would be over

and before we knew it 

it was.

I love you.

I looked at the sky 

and this time with a frown.

We're not together

but you're still here somehow.

I hear your voice within the wind.

I see your eyes in the rain.

I feel you in the ocean.

The waves they took you along at sea.

Drifting away I can still hear you say to me.

I'll love you forever and I just want you to know.

I will be yours forever and I will never let go.

I know you're not here anymore.

It was out of our control

but I will wait for forever.

I love you.
