The Adriatic Sea

A namesake
Waves wash over me
Sea sounds
Enveloped in peace
Each syllable measured, blue
Not scientific, but prolific
Your gaze piercing in the most calming way
Your brown eyes whispering
Nothing else matters
All is calm
There's nothing else
No one else
My heart slows to the trance of those compassionate eyes
A prescription for peace
You cure the chaos
I swim in your silence
Drown in the deftness of your careful, quiet words
Reassuring
Like ocean calm
Blue like the sea
Guardian gaze
