Dear Sea

O Dear Sea,

Sweet and subtle through endless days
This stage that we’re in, I’m eager and dazed
Your gaze
Your wit
Your selfless ways
I’m timid
I’m nervous
My mind in a haze
But while I sit waiting, I’ll search for soft hints
The ones you supply bring a grin once they’re sent
The lyrics sing calls and I’m drinking them down
Such phrases, such crazes, such mazes surround

It’s a challenge for me
To bring forth a glance
To alter free movement
To a stiff, steady stance
That awkwardly ponders the thoughts in my mind
The questions of time
When our dreams are one rhyme

Like stars in the sky
Strive to line with the sun
Signs the world’s ending
But signs we’ve begun
Can you see pure confusion? Do you mirror my doubts?Could delusions elude you from drowning them out?

Oh, please deny this and say it’s not so
Say you’re engrossed and you’ll, not yet, let go
With all that I know, I pray and I wish
To one day exceed at your check off list
Numbers grow large and the lines are quite long
With patience, I’ll gently lead you along
To see past the doubts
To see I am strong

With others it’s different. Connections are scarce
We’re shallow, on surface, and threads are too coarse
Such contrast I know
For the seeds we plant grow!
They actually rise to the questions I throw

I’m impressed
I’m matched up
I’m on quest for your votes
Not scribbles in margins for me to decode
‘Cause sweet gentle smiles control me
Enroll me
Along with my heartthrobs
Where outcasts patrol me

No need for these fears
This choice is from me
No need for lost tears
Oh hear me, Dear Sea
