Hearts are harbors
Where lovers flow in
With the tide
And some will find refuge
In your arms
In your bed
Only to linger
Then leave,
All connections
Ebbing away
With time.
But one of them
Will dive deep
Seep into you more
Than you understand
Until life's currents carry her
Far from familiarity
Toward a greater gravity
And no matter how many
Moonlit nights and sun-drenched days
You spend drowning yourself
In different people,
You'll still thirst for
The sea of her skin.
