Port of Call
I see it in your eyes.
The things which man can never describe,
Beyond true and false, and beyond any reason,
Through sunlight attacking and starlight attracting,
those beacons alight things unseen.
Guiding my sorrow on towards tomorrow, safely through the change of the season.
I saw it in the sunrise,
The answers I thought were veiled from these eyes.
Beyond what I knew, and what I'd forgot,
Secrets lay hidden, within the forbidden, horizon of sun ever fleeting.
Grasping for clues with nothing to lose, only all of the things which I sought.
The vast expanse of the sea:
Intruiguing, beguiling, beckoning me.
From here to infinity, I sailed with the tide.
Waters receded as regrets impeded, on towards the edge of the world.
Deep in the mist with the memory of your kiss, covered by stars I would hide.
I saw it in the swells,
The hope to discover the place where love dwells.
To weather the storm till the ends of the world.
Moonlight caressing my fears to undressing, revealing my tangle of sails.
Favorable winds, guiding my sins, catching in truth now unfurled.
It whispered upon the mist.
Your sweetest voice and the breath of you kiss.
I quested for hope, yet found but despair.
Deep in the shoals with impossible goals, I wandered from ocean to eddy.
Left answers behind, in front of my mind, waiting in your tender care.
I've rediscovered this land.
Letting the answers I hunted slip through my hand.
I'd been far and wide, and quite blind did I roam,
Alighting old fears and fighting off tears, I escaped by the path you had lit.
Through humbling rain I defeated my bane, setting course for the wamrth of your home.
I discovered what I had yearned,
I struggled long ere I had learned,
At the ends of the earth no answers have meaning.
Revalation's elusive, the questions reclusive, what I sought was not far and away.
I'd left it at home, where I'd thought not to roam, inside of those eyes that are gleaming.
I lay in the bay of your eyes,
I see all the things I could not describe,
Beyond true and false, above any reason;
Across the exspanse of one mans romance, journey towards places unseen.
Soothing my sorrow for one more tomorrow, and the radiant changing of season.
