Oh my love
your island was my dessert
and as the tide fills your spaces
so my shame rose into your arms
Oh my love
I combed the sandy beaches of your lips
my fingertips upon your beating heart
with my desire to claim the shell for my own
Oh my love
I felt your heart beating in the sand
boxed and branded with a new name
I always thought would be mine
Oh my love
I told you I would be waiting
along with every meaningless wave you cast away
Those waves will wear your heart
Oh my love
I leave you here
Your strength far greater than my mistake
your barrier reef fading in the distance of my ocean
