With in the spark of you and I
The waves wash up
Upon the shore
Being the foundation to what this is
The shore of love holds space
As the waves come and go
And like this dance we dance
Of back and forth
Each time
a still point
Adding greater magic to
The Union of the ocean waves
Upon the shore
Of this solid foundation
Of a thing called love
We built without building
For it is what we are
As the waves wash up on my soul
Then they retreat
So do you enter my life with power
Pulling back, way back
And in that stillness, content
I meet with you again
And waves of pleasure engulf
My every sense as
We go deeper and deeper
Into the makings of what we are
Rhythms of ecstasy play with us
We want to hold on tight
To this splendor
Each time we do it vanishes
For the waves cannot be caught,
But only ridden upon
And so we
In the moment
Stand upon our wave and ride
Like this was the reason we came forth
The reason being
To LOVE
In the ocean of all these overwhelming emotions
The consistent is a love
That is deeper than the ocean
And more vast than the horizon
No space or time can encompass the magnitude
No number of life times can capture
It’s beauty
It can only be lived out and experienced,
Expressed in those moments
As we enjoy each new wave washing upon our shores
We keep open the door
And know that this love from which it springs
Will forever and endlessly pour.
Where is the logic, where is the reason
Love is this dance we dance
It is a magic between you
And I we cannot run from.
So in the magic of the now
We surrender to the present
And let it be
And in that open palm
We are given more than
We could ever hope to have.
So upon the shores of love
This foundation so deep
We can move forward
Enjoying the play
Between you and I.
