Sea of People

The sea of people,
it brought you to me.
From the highest heights
to the lowest lows.

The Seven Seas you had to cross,
The Heavens you had to fly;
on foreign land, you stepped,
to me, it drew you nigh. 

Obsidian night,
surrounded by light;
I saw a pair of blue,
a touch came through.

The Sea of people,
it brought you to me.
There was peace in silence,
between you and me.

Telling gazes,
clamorous waves;
stolen seconds,
is this lavender haze?

A heart
out in the open,
A choice
one should have taken.

As your bride-to-be,
why did we not marry?
A glimpse from here to there,
full of words, your stolen stare. 

Your lips, they laughed,
but your eyes, 
oh, your eyes made me wonder.

A decision made,
an accepted ill-fate;
So close, we were,
With a distance so great.

Such a mute lad
in a vast sea,
swim for your lass,
swim and move mountains quickly.

The Heavens cried,
and its tears fell;
the night was ending,
was this our farewell?

Alas, the sun rose,
and a new day dawned;
not many people,
just you, me, and the Sea.

Flamingo pink,
tangerine touched;
a hint of blue,
a hint of you.

Eight billion,
and you came to be;
The sea of people,
and it brought You to Me.
