the sailor
she cameunexpected
a summer breeze
refreshing and cool
i set sail with her
to flirt a while with the waves
frolic in the ocean spray
because i had always loved the sea
had not foreseen breeze could turn to torrent
beyond this gentle bay
a tiny ship gets lost out there
alone in the deep blue sea
or runs aground on foreign shores
or looses all bearings evermore
still i am no longer at ease
here on this familiar shore
i am learning to trust the winds
my sails cannot contain
to love the sea for its ... unity
to see the continents' fluidity
and she has been a part of this
i love her for showing me
i am a sailor
before she set me
back on shore
