Love's Wave

It was by the water

Where we learned the truth

The definition of love

Without the fights

Screams and slammed doors-

It was written in history

Memories spiraling

Creating a map

Of where we came from,

Where we would go-

Only in time

Did we learn our path,

Laughing at the past

Lost in wrong turns

That became right.

Fickle fights and tears

Fade to laughter

Backseat to compromise

And adventure together-

Past faces fade to stranger.

Brown eyes take hold

Depth yanked me in

Willingness to drown

In a smile so sweet.

Beside the water,

The waves kiss-

Tickle bare toes

Sunset colors our night-

Preparing for another

Caring dream.
