I watched helpless once,
As my feelings furiously surged.
Breaking the shackles of words,
I try to pack them in.
I worried my thoughts would be lost,
In the deluge of sublunary pursuits.
Still I hoped some day to find,
The words that can hold,
And carry undiluted across,
What I had long felt for you.
They are at home in your heart,
And will be forever so.
Be a beacon for my thoughts,
As they sail to find refuge in you.
