I've found myself lost at sea
Like a ship never to return to harbor
Surrounded by a sea so clear and so dark
It's depths ignite then consume every spark
Crystals dancing on the early morning's rays
Floating through time thats's unending
How did I let myself drift so far from shore
And why are you the one memory I can't ignore
Waves crashing down for hours around me in chaos
Disoriented and not sure which direction I'm headed
A storm brewing on the horizon moving this way fast
I don't know if I can handle this, I don't know if I'll last
I just want to feel the safety of your arms
To lean into the strength and hope you offer
I close my eyes in an effort to remember that feeling
To hear softly whispered words that always sent me reeling
I'm so tired of trying to stay afloat in the coming darkness
Memories haunting my every waking thought and dream
I'm so close to letting go, to abandoning myself to the night
I can't hold back anymore, I can't keep up this endless fight
My first mistake was getting lost in your eyes
Then later it was your gaze, your arms, your touch
I'm now lost in the sea of you
And this storm and fear of going under is all too true

3:17 a.m. ... that was the time I was up til last night. I needed to get to bed early and of course I couldn't sleep. So, I slept for two hours and then went to work at 6 a.m. Fun times! anyway, I just wanted to say that I loved your poem... it's awesome (for lack of a better word!), but really it is. Love you! have a good night.
