The Ocean Floor

Once upon a long dark night.....

dreams of days spent in flight....

wanderlust of life so free.....

clinging thoughts of sand by the sea....

waves uproariously chasing the coast.....

only to retreat....leave the foam to boast.....

'I'm part of the sea.....and all that's beneath.....

secrets I hold....of lives here reaped' ~

silence commands depths all around.....

way down deep.....where the sea itself drowns'.....

consumed by herself......and all that's above.....

no...

no-one matches theses depths...

not human love.....

I stood by the sea....

longing to sink in it ......

to abandon myself....as it were....

the Final Finish.

As I stood there many times......

and pondered this thought.....

I knew......way down deep.....

my Life....

was bought ~

Bought as it is....just as I am.....

who was I?

to erase from His hand........

the print on His palm....

He Himself has placed there....

the sea and all in it......

can not compare.....

nor the depth ~

nor the width ~

nor the length ~

nor the sky above.....

nothing ~

save nothing......

can separate me ....

from....

His Love.
