The Sea Is My Lover

The Sea is my lover
the shoreline our bedroom
slowly he takes me to
the Ends of Forever.

Ignoring the jagged rocks he comes calling
cutting himself on the 
stones and the shingles.

Arriving breathless, he lifts me
higher
until I crash on the vague
horizon.

And I am left
                     clinging
to his nebulous shadow
while my salt tears descend
and fill his great
Body.
