To Cherish Thorns
: Just A Thousand Oceans by michaelcahill
    Free Verse Contest Winner 

LOVE IS LOVE REGARDLESS--A GOOD THING


 
I ponder oceans
but not their depth for that is known
to me and surely known to you
                and yes I've considered
                mountains tall piercing Heaven
                knowing you are of its fabric
 
it is miles considered
on this lonely beach
and how to breach
the vast expanse of circumstance
                the waves roll in
                                and offer not a ride away
                                away to you
                                where I know you've built a castle
 
our souls dance in the mist
far out to sea
where no one need be privy
                a sweet embrace
                                that is only beautiful
 
such is love
when the oceans
do not approve

Author Notes


This is me and Tori Amos. I'm sure she'd NOT be pleased. :))
Not exactly sure what the song is about, but many of the phrases
strike me as ones that pertain to the feelings I'm expressing, so
here it is.
