Reflection From the Sea- A poem about looking for the one meant for you, and the feelings felt along the way

A few words; twisted charade

A chandelier of twisted spades

A crystals reflection worth of possibilities

A few steps that could change the world

Or the few not taken to watch it fall apart

Like an hourglass that’s been tainted

If I could only count the time, I’d watch

Forgiving moments I forgot to see

It’s the splinter in your eyes

The opportunities we miss in compromise

It’s because we care

The blanket of security we grant

A universal symbol of bond

I’d walk the earth to find you

But you were always right in front of me

The bandage on my hearts undone

And you’ve seemed to mend the wounds

The bleeding’s stopped, just scars and stories

And the never ending reminder of you

The absence of just someone there

Each sunrise a plain reminder

The reflection of the sea

Somewhere out there it’s you waiting

And at some time will be

So cross your heart, each step I take

Is another step closer to you

And I will search the earth forever

Just to make this embrace real
