[Verbavore]

Surely we were meant to be.
But a wave is just a part
of an endless ocean of sea,
and as far as lonely me,
I could only barely start
to compare to an ocean of sea.

Surely we were meant to love.
As lovers we were great.
But, could we ever rise above
the ocean of our love
and navigate our fate?
Could we ever rise above
and do much more than mate?

Surely we were meant to fight
as arguing is called.
It never felt that it was right,
It may be me, it may just might
be the reason that I stalled
and put you on a pedestal
in an artificial light.

Surely we were meant to break
as the sun breaks anew each day
to shine on a new emotional lake.
More than hearts were meant to break.
It was more than love we were meant to make.
As tears are cried ‘cause I can’t stay
they fill up an ocean of sea.
And as far as you pertain to me,
I’m drowning in your lake.
