Waves of Emotion

by Colleen Barry
Completed 06-14-07

My mind swirls like the waves in an ocean cesspool
With thoughts of you and me,
Foaming with love and laughter for all,
And billowing like the swells in the sea.

My mind floods likes the caves off a blue ocean coast
With thoughts of you and me,
Flooding and filling, and churning and billowing,
The waves refusing to let it be.

My heart bursts like the waves burst against ocean crags
With thoughts of you and me,
Beating and pounding and fully resounding
As waves and rock meet land and tree.

My body yearns like sailors of far away coasts
With thoughts of you and me,
Wanting and wishing, pining and longing
As the sand needs the water to be.

Endless and vast though the waters may be,
Coast to coast, spanning from ocean to sea...
But just as the waves, swells, tide and the sea,
My body resounds with love and passion
For you and me.
