when I was overcome with stress and worry,
my waning waves washed upon your shores.
when in tempest my storms would rage,
you weathered the clashing climates.
cradled by your earth, my briny sea becomes
freshwater; my temperate waters turn glacial
at your polar caps. Lingering, I steam
dissipating vapor at your volcanic loins,
my tides have pooled upon your belly.
they say our shared existence will cease
to be when the sea swallows up the land,
but I believe our love can only end
when, together, we have expired
extinguished as water and a flame.
