Sitting by the fire sipping wine

Knew well it was final this time

Their love wasn't coming back

But held on as their boat sank

Maybe I should get out of here

While I still have a fighting chance

Instead decided to wait patiently

For those waves to consume them

Not long the storm broke through

And ocean swells filled their soul

But they didn't struggle against it

They Let the water devour them

It ripped them in many directions

They gave themselves over to it

Knowing waves would do damage

Still they allowed it control them

There was just something about it

That made them feel so alive

When the liquid coolness touched

Them over their heated pale skin

The more they continued to stay

They knew they'd drown for sure

And welcomed it wholeheartedly

[Hah!! In case you're wondering the ocean is a metaphor 😉]
