Tiny Ocean

Tiny Ocean

I hold this ocean in my palm

its deep blue void a mystery

surrounded by its silver sand

its the raindrop of a history

I hold this ocean to my lips

and kiss its icy swells

crystal facets blow a breeze

sailing where my destiny dwells

I hold this ocean to the sun

and marvel at its perfect surface

I close my eyes accepting that

this ocean holds my purpose

I hold this ocean to my heart
loving even its darkest abyss
but now I have to set it free
with one painful goodbye kiss
