The Sea And You
I very often sit watching the ebb and flow of the sea
and it always gets me thinking about you and me.
The way you walk out and leave me for other men,
and whenever it suits you, you come back again.
When we met, you cast out your line, hook, and bait,
and I swallowed everything, I was such an easy take.
This beautiful sea is shallow compared to your depths,
and there are no answers to your unfathomableness.
The silvery moonlight reflects across the bay;
why don’t you ever listen to a word I say?
The oceans winter coldness compares well too,
but it’s warmer than the iciness I get from you.
Why you behave this way, heaven only knows,
but like the sea, only the surface shows.
I cannot continue against this unrelenting tide,
it’s time to go and leave your ego behind.
