Love Poem: Like the Sea Watches the Sky

Like the Sea Watches the Sky

I watch you 
Like the sea watches the sky,
Reflecting on every change in its face-
Darkening with the shadow of every cloud
And catching every raindrop, 
Brightening at every sunrise
And tossing back the sunbeams-
Saturated with the deep blueness
Of your closeness,
Even if we don't touch...

But still, I'm praying for a storm;
Even the sea wants to reach out
To touch the sky once in a while,
And when they're close enough
To press against each other,
I won't need to see you
To taste the lightning
On your tongue...
