Love Poem: Above the Waves

Above the Waves

You are my life jacket
In a sea of grief,
Swallowed by the feelings and thoughts
Of my past

When the seas are calm
You hold me near
With readiness for the unknown

When the waves are high
You cling to me
Keeping me above the depths

I am safe with you
Without you I would face my end; 
Fooled by the calm seas
Soon to be swallowed by the waves
