|
The waves speak quietly to me |
|
When the tempest sleeps deep beneath. |
|
I wish that I could give to you |
|
The sun before it weds the west. |
|
My tears mingle soft with the sea |
|
Though I dream that you could taste them. |
|
Lay with me our bridal bed |
|
Dance a moonlit path thereon |
|
Lay with me above the dead |
|
That drift with tides kiss upon. |
|
My undine beauty, thou hast seen |
|
The coral kingdoms, silence, peace |
|
The moon and stars I would forsake |
|
To gaze into thy starry eyes |
|
The azure sky seems not so deep |
|
As azure oceans, amidst sleep. |
