My heart is an ocean,
deep and swallowing.
Your faults and inadequacies
drowned in my embrace.
I feel you,
totally and without boundary.
And when you turn away,
I lose the beauty
that was sustained,
that was shared.
A part of my ocean,
is taken with you.
To hear your voice,
feel your laughter.
See what you see.
Share your hopes and dreams.
But I get to feel nothing.
I am left to wait for another.
Someone new to swim in my ocean,
and take another piece of me away.
