A sand less shore

Diesel vapour blowing from the stack

Entering my nostrils and making me sick

So far away

So far away

My love

My hope

So far away

A crescent night sky

Shadows cast from moonlight

I see into the darkness

But nothing

All I see is you, the translucent outline

Of you in the night

My watch stops

Time is still

The rolling of the sea

My friend

The wet open air

My comfort

The salty taste on my skin is your skin

Your touch

Your heart

My home
