The rock of you

There is a rock in th' deep blue sea
He towers silent, sheer and steep
His shoulders firm, his head aloft
Secure, but no one's been on top

No bird has ever made its nest
No cloud has ever found its rest
Stands square in peace this longed-for haven
Sunk in his thoughts in silence spell-bound

A wild and gamesome spirit wanders
Amidst the waves in breezy showers
She once played seas and oceans far
Shipwrecked and lonely, joyous and fun

The spirit's charmed by th' cryptic rock
She's crashed against the solid slopes
Her salty kisses aren't returned
Her tears meet nothing but reproach

Not long ago I saw this place
It's full of mystery and grace
I heard the voiceless wisper there
'Forget' returned with breeze 'I can't'
