The ocean calls [[me|Love]], I hear its voice...
The waves come in droves, caressing the air.
Sand beneath my feet, deeper I dive in.
I see [[his|Under]] eyes look at me,
so deep-
and blue.
I sink into the sand deeper-
as love envelops me
without cumber.
I know not that [[she|Pier]] stares,
Eyes so green...daggers upon daggers
I do not feel.
Love is in me, all around me.
She stands on the pier-It came with no approach,
I did not know of love.
A touch, a stare,
my heart...
When I see his eyes, I see only love.
He is all I see.
To love and be loved,
is all I ever [[need|Need]].
I know the love of another
Could it be that she
feels the same as me?
Could it be that I should not love?They say I don't understand...but I do. They say never to give in to the temptation of lust, but I want to. They say do not wrong the one who loves, but it is I who love. They, they, they...I cannot say. I love [[two|Two]] and cannot be from either. Must I make the choice or can I not abide by the rules of courtship? I know, I know, it is wrong of me to do. Again, I cannot help what I feel. It is so deep...I yearn for her touch...her smile...her lips.A need unknown, I have never felt.
Laugh, laugh all my guilt away-
Love is something that cannot be harnessed.
Love is something that cannot be altered.
Selfish I must be, to feel what I feel.
Understand this, understand this,
One cannot know what love may be
if they do not feel as I have felt.
Love is something that cannot be ordained
Love is something that cannot be erased.
I know the hurt one must feel
as if love is taken from them.
Yet love is given to me so freely,
therefore I [[cannot|See]] turn it away.
Love is something to receive.
Love is something to give.
Laughter spills to the sand.
Tears land on the pier,
I glance up and see her...
My breath catches in the air,
Did she see? Does she know?
The sand beneath me is scratchy
The waves of the ocean look angry
I no longer can frolick and play.
The [[guilt|Guilt]] overpowers me,
Love knows no bounds,
She knows nothing of what is behind her,
Continue to play,
Your heart should know
no guilt.August comes and goes, love has not falter us. I watch as the love grows. Do I see what is yet to be? Yes, I see. Do I feel the same as he? Yes, I feel. Do I yearn for him to be? Yes, I yearn. I feel a [[storm|Storm]] coming, something that cannot be controlled. It [[Scares]] me.
I stood by on the pier
[[watching|Scene]] the water, hoping
that this feeling goes away.
Waves upon waves
reaches the shore
pushing the sand aside,
under and up,
over and out.
Waves know no boundaries,
it knows no end.
I looked up to the sky
wondering why...
So blue-
Birds fly by,
no expectations,
just a destination
So high, the sky
When will it end?
One cannot say.I watch the two in the waves,
splashing about, laughing.
Why must it be I who watch?
I came to be on this pier
with no thought as to why.
Never would I have thought
to [[see|See]] a scene,
a scene in which I have been
in...a scene I was once a part of.I feel her hands clasping mine. The love
I feel still there. A strength I knew
nothing of, holds on. My feet above the sand,
my love, do you feel my heart beating? I cannot
hide any longer, she cannot [[avoid|Avoid]] any longer.
Love blossomed on this summer sand, a love so true,
a love so free.
I stand upon this pier and I dare see,
both down staring up at me. Ah, the [[rage|Rage]]
the rage I feel, the rage is coming near.
Love should not be taken away,
Love should not be taken away...
Love cannot forsaken me...I beg and beg.
I close my eyes so I cannot see.
The thunder sounds, ringing my ears.
As I stop splashing around, I see a storm
about to come. A thought in my head, no
it cannot be. Maybe a [[shadow|Shadow]] of what is
yet to come? I look behind me and there
I saw. She standing on the pier, looking
down on me. My heart stops, my breath
quicken. My fingers tighten on as I
feel his loosen ones.
The rage I know...must be
her. The love still there-
I look at him, I look at her.Raging waves come faster, higher and higher. I look at one, "Come away from the edge, my love." I look above, the guilt is overpowering me but the love, the love I want to hold. Hers or hers, I do not know. One will be my downfall and one will be my rise. I cannot see her eyes though I know, I know... What she once saw as indifferent... now a threat. If only I knew of what to do. I look up and noticed the [[storm|Storm]].I knew this time, I could not avoid.
Her eyes are now open, open for her to see.
My guilt overpowering me, the deceit, the unjust.
I never meant for this to happen, I hope you can forgive.
I walk towards the open sand,
Hope it will open and sweep me in,
For what I have to do,
I cannot bear to do.
I held onto her hand,
strength builds within.
She is what matters, what I must do
to [[forsake|Storm II]] a love...to continue a love.Thunder rumbles in me as it fills the air.
How could they, how could they
do this to me?
[[Ligthening|Storm II]] touches the oceans surface,
Rumble, rumble loud and clear.
Tears fall to the pier,
fists clenched, I will not falter,
I will not let them see.
I loved you first, my whole being was yours to hold. Cherised all the moments, happiness filled my heart. Never had I told another, never had I given another. I will not let you see, I will not let you see.The storm approaches, a shadow in the air.
[[Black|Storm II]] up ahead, winds picking up.
Chill fills the air...I look back
and could not see.
His hand tight on mine, so tight,
something is not right.
I look towards the pier,there
she still stands, so high
and beautiful.
Friends we were, so close
How could I have fallen
for him? I'm so
sorry.The storm rolls in, the ocean waves high and angry. Lightening crackles into the ocean. All three look out towards the black filled air. Lightening continues to strike the ocean and sand. Rain falling all around them. Without warning, wave upon wave strikes the [[land|The Calm]].The storm passes, the rage settles. One on the pier, two on the sands.
