Oceans Lullaby

by BEJohnson   Feb 9, 2020


I still remember that one summer day
Everything seemed to be so flawless.
The waves split and the water rippled
Everything I gained in our first kiss.

He took my hand and traced the sky
Whispered sweet nothings in my ear.
Touched my cheeks dimples and smiled
Told me his love would never disappear.

He had shushed my lips as I spoke
Then asked me to listen to the ocean.
He hugged me so tightly that day.
I still remember the words that were spoken.

He whispered his voice could be heard
But only when the hardest times arise.
Now I sit here crying to myself silently
As my tears blur this beautiful sunrise.

Even after two years without him I weep
Wishing I could have him here with me.
Asking the Lord why he took him away
The person I love, the better part of me.

I guess I'll never know why it happened
As I sit here watching the waves as I cry.
Wishing I could be with him I listen
To this oceans sweet comforting lullaby.

    It is so very hard to lose someone. This flowed as easily as the ocean. Beautiful-
