Tides

You’re the moon

Who pushes

And pulls my tides

I’m the earth

(as you say)

Where you revolve.

Gravity.

Gravity.

Stay close.

Closer.

 

Let your light

Spread the waters

Shimmer like crystals

Make this body

Of water come alive!

Closer.

Gravity.

Gravity.

 

Round, bold and heavy

You form

Above me

Lurking from the dark beyond

You form

Full, illuminating

 

Fall into me

Crash my waters

Splash!

Splash!

Gravity.

But gravity.

Break the serenity

Of my nights

Break

The built places.

Shake my continents

My sea floor.

Closer.

 

Keep pushing

Pull

Push

Rhythm of the waves

Crashes the shores

The voices of my waters

Rumble beneath

The shimmering surface.

Fall into me

Stronger tides

Higher waves

Louder crashes

 

You’re the moon

Hold your place.

No,

Closer.

Fall into me.

Gravity.
