My feelings for you recede like the waves
Until I once again crave your touch
Then you come in on the tides
Bringing with you all the anguish and torment
That I had stored away in a message bottle
And cast out into the sea
The salt from your lips
Stings every cut on my body
But your skin which smells like sunlight
Is so intoxicating that I do not care about the
Pain, only the feel of your wind-swept hair
Running through my fingers
And when the tide rushes in, I will
Send you away like I always do
Waiting for the moment of separation
But until then I will wait patiently
For the moon to pull you away again
Back into my sea of heartache
