More Poems by Water Lily
Written by waterlily34 on June 22, 2008 – 10:13 am -A sigh in the bed
A look in passing
Busy we live
Connected by love
A home in blossom
A boy in growth
Trips and events
Always things to do
Taking care of
Maintaining our bonds
Trusting that things
Will evolve and remain
Strong
Stable like pillars
Withstanding the forces of nature
Standing close beside
Always remaining
Yours

Sometimes when I’m floating along
bobbing gently in the sea
with the sun shining warmly on my face
feeling complete and serene
a wave of fear engulfs me
and I worry that I won’t find land
the salty water and angry sun
will burn and dry my aching bones
I search for my lifeline
Then I see you
pulling me in
hand over hand
A look of understanding
Cradling me back to reality
________________________
In the space
between you and I
are dreams and wishes
thoughts and questions
ebbing back and forth
rocking like the hull
of a beautiful old boat
that has traveled
all this time
before we knew each other
waiting to set sail
testing the water
towards an unknown journey
taking us safely across
the oceans in our hearts
to an island in our eyes
where all our aches and pains
are absolved in one glance
and so we go…
to this space
