watching the tide

heart saved from fears of night

an angel healing ancient wounds

flames of a feather burn alike

moments that see eye to eye

found in a fountain where lover's splash

and lay their souls bare

while gazing up at space

contemplating worlds unseen

that will soon become quite clear

-

ears pierced by the sound of light

a soft pitch to which I'm attuned

as piano keys gently strike

love races across the sky

rising higher as the embers turn to ash

another breath of fresh air

that eternal resting place

found somewhere in between

the ocean and the atmosphere
