Waves

Love is like an ocean,
When it’s quiet,
it flows as smooth as the sea,
when it’s rough,
waves comes crashing down.

The smoothness is gone,
the waves intensify,
promises are broken,
and hearts are sunken.

I am sinking in the roughness of the waves,
trying to swim my way to the top,
but the waves bring me back down,
I try to look for you,
for safety and security,
but you are gone.

How can you leave me?
Why would you leave me to drown?
I cry out for you to help,
no one hears me,
I try and try to move,
But the waves are too strong to lift me up.

Something is holding me down,
Is it the waves?
Or is it just me?
I finally find my strength,
to swim my way to the top.

I see you standing there,
I smiled at you,
you looked at me,
turned around and walked away,
waves are powerful,
they can ruin …and destroy.
