The temperament <br />Of the Indian Ocean <br />Can be captured <br />In your aquamarine eyes <br />My love <br /> <br />At times <br />Tempestuous as a prairie bison <br />With monumental waves <br />Crashing in all directions <br />Devouring all in her path <br />As you succumb to your mania <br /> <br />At times <br />Placid as a hermit <br />Surrendering to the lull of nature <br />With no whispers nor murmurs <br />But engrossed <br />In your profound meditation <br />As your relinquish to your melancholia <br /> <br />As I gaze at your portals <br />Sculpted in beryl <br />Harboring a mosaic of emotions <br />Yearning to wade in <br />To be swept off my feet <br />To surrender to your world <br />To your own unique conglomeration <br />Of fire and ice <br /> <br />For love is our beacon <br />And hope our compass <br /> <br />And your darkness my love <br />Is our journey<br /><br />Dilantha Gunawardana<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-love-so-rare-2/
