The Love Was Once the Sea

My love was once the sea I yearned for the day to feel the cool breeze that eased 
my heart. 
To feel the waves that rocked me to sleep. 
To hear the engines rolling underneath my feet that made me feel safe as I fell 
into a deep sleep. 
To look into the horizon and see the true gift god has gave men. 
Away from the cities the earth laid still at peace. 
To smell the cool breeze with no toxins in the air.
To watch the sunset as the sea life moved with tender and care.
 To look into the sky and see the stars gleaming through the night, 
then it hit me! I felt like I belonged. 
The true meaning of happiness and content ness ran through my body.
 Along came a day my world was turned for the love and devotion that once was 
to the sea came a moment with you.To look into your eyes and feel your touch, 
to hear your heartbeat that put me to sleep. 
The meaning of life appeared in front of me as god laid it there. 
To show me the meaning of love that once was filled by the cool breeze but, now 
it was replaced by your heart . The stars that gleamed through the night that 
eased my mind was turned into your eyes as they glistened through the night. 
The rolling engines that made me feel safe was turned into your arms as we fell 
into a deep sleep.
The feeling of fulfillment rushed through my body as I look into your eyes I felt like 
I belonged. 
You have became the sea that once I yearned, as I look into the sky I thank god 
for bring you to me, for you have became my sea
