The Sea of Love
THE SEA OF LOVE
Out on a limb about to break,
below, the rocks, and crashing sea,
still searching for my last mistake
and how it came to ever be.
I had the plan, like everything,
the world was mine and in my hand,
the road through life, where I was king,
was comfortable, as I had planned.
But then love came, like not before,
and shattered all my dreams
to leave me wanting so much more;
than what I had, and how life seems.
Appropriated from the past,
I borrowed yesterday,
not knowing it could never last
because it's gone away;
so love has backed me to this break,
of limb and life, and I shall fall,
in love again, the big mistake,
into the sea of love that claims us all.
