I'm the eternal rock by the shore
Unchangeable, immovable, stable to the core
You are the sea, with it's many moods
That loves, hates, sulks & broods.
Sometimes, your frolicsome waves so tease
That with their infectious love,they cannot but please
Sometimes in a frenzy, the roller crash
And any resistance I put up, to pieces dash.
At times, for no reason at all
Your favours, you withdraw
The tide ebbs and I stand
naked,vulnerable & raw.
The burning sand brutally taunt
As I burn with desire, need & want
And when I think
With you I've lost all ground
You embrace,engulf, literally astound
In a wave of passion you submerge
Till at last, sputtering, I emerge
And then, for the flimsiest of all reasons
Our love, with the fury of tempest
You season
Foaming at mouth, you come
Crowding upon me
And shake my foundations
however strong they may be.
Just when I think, I can bear no more
You are a sheet of mirror
from shore to shore
Though only for a shortwhile
Restful and calm
To my frayed nerves
such an incredible balm
Why Oh Why do I tolerate you?
In the name of heaven
If only I knew...
Your fluidity and my stability
Are a perfect foil for each other
And I know each cannot
Exist without the other.
