Compass Rose
January 28, 2013
My Compass rose, in sync with yours
You are the two heads, to my oars,
I thank the wind, the land, the sea,
That God has washed you to my shores
I spent so long in the looking glass
To find a mate beyond my mast
In time, the grime, tore up my sail
And down was I, all much to fast
The fod rolled in, but out your ship
Just as I had begun to slip
Over she went, port side splashed in first
With the keep straight up, my soul had flipped
You barreled through my wretched brake
In need of help was I in your wake
You gave me hope I wouldnt drown
When two strong hands pulled me from my ache
Such a healing touch you had on me
Fixed what had been broken and bruised by the sea
You stole my heart when you held me tight
I felt my love was finally free
My compass rose, in sync with yours
You are the two heads, to my oars
I thank the wind, the land, the sea,
That God has washed you to my shores
