Troubled Waters (Poem to My love Nightseye the DreamGod)

Waves of disparity...

The vehicle of My Life

Tosses its way through choppy seas.



Uncertain the currents that carry me.

Inconstant the winds that give me speed.

Unknown if I will reach safe harbor.



I struggle with the denizens of Change.

I wrestle with Leviathans of Despair.

A crest of hope lifts me, only to

drop me into a trough of sadness.



My anchor is Love, holding firm.

When I land, He will be waiting

To soothe my fears...

And dry my tears.

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I wrote this poem when My spirits were lowest in the long-distance relationship that culminated in marriage on July 16th 2004.  I am just back from My honeymoon.  Wish us luck!
