The Reach

An ocean of possibility within
An ocean of my original sin
i reach to your presence
Hypnotized by your luminescence
I reach eternally, With conviction
Your pull, my addiction

I reach

The will of your gravity Is my command
The shimmer of your light upon my surface...echoes below
Into the darkness below..a beacon
Magnetized I am your slave
This night..I am the wave
an ocean of knowledge to gain
The rhythm, the heartbeat..
the virtue of the pouring rain

Tonight I reach

Upon the shore
Upon the beach
A fear for each grain
I gave it shape
Crafted by my hand
Castle made of sand
Tonight you are the rain that gave it imperfection
Tonight I am the wave that destroyed it with the pull of your influence
And I am the tide that washed it away with the kiss of your warmth

This night I reach

Tomorrow your light will shine it's brightest...the moon, full
Tomorrow my reach, tomorrow your pull
Tomorrow my eyes skyward
Rather than to the shore
Tomorrow no man will love you more.

Forever I reach.

    This seems like a song to the Moon.

    It is (kind of). I'm the tide and she's the moon.

    This sweet piece had me thinking of my kids when they were infants.
    Even though it is romantic.
    Thanks for the ride down memory lane.
    I remember when, yeah. I swore I knew everything, oh yeah.

    Your Welcome. I'm glad you bumped this up. It was just as sweet on the rebound....the five month rebound....more like an orbit. What happened? Did you REACH for the stars and fall off the planet =))
    Anyway, welcome back. Very nice "The Reach"
