love of sea

That sea,
That sea of love,
I sipped that sea.
And fell in love with only that sea.
That sea.
I sipped so much my mouth grew bitter,
I could taste it,
That sea.
That housed fishes alike.
I tried friend.
I tried leaving that sea, be.
But I couldn’t,
I wouldn’t,
I shouldn’t.
I loved that sea,
I didn’t want my heart,
Oh, beloved heart,
To be broken.
And so,
I told that sea,
That I would never leave,
But only drown,
Drown in that sea.
That sea of love,
I sipped that sea,
And fell in love with only that sea.
Even if the waves crashed,
It wasn’t from the sea,
But the wind.
Oh, wind its you again.
You come and go.
But no,
That sea,
That sea of mine,
Will never dry,
So tell the sun,
Dear beloved wind,
That its shine will only heat my passion.
For the sea.
I do love.
For the sea,
I do care,
And for the sea,
For that sea.
It is you that I love,
So wind, sun let us be.
