A Mari Usque Ad Mare

she’s the sunset
shimmer starlight
in the end
those sparkling eyes

she laughs like winter
flirts like autumn
her smile yearns
to hypnotize

from sea to shining
waiting on the shore

now would you rather
won’t you have her
be the one
to tell her that she’s worth it
because she’s worth it

this heart cadaver
would you rather
watch her fall
don’t tell her she deserves it
nobody heard it

her life’s a song
so sing along
this interest
most intimate
of questions

she’s trying hard
to find the one
to be at last
the rising sun

she doesn’t need
to hear from you
the questions that
you put her through

just let her find her way
her pace. her time

last I checked to be alone
was not a crime

she threw away the key
again, once more

from sea to shining
waiting on the shore

now would you rather
won’t you have her
be the one
to tell her that she’s worth it
because she’s worth it

this heart cadaver
would you rather
find it all
and tell her she deserves it
and that you heard it
