You brought the Sea

You brought the sea with you

rising up inside my soul

and now you tempt me to return
to your temple

you pull back the dark
piece by piece

and I am blinded by your light, 

held captive by the flame

in your heart

that has lit a flame in mine.

Yes, we were interwoven
by the hand of god

on silver thread
and morning's song.

I saw you from afar
and you've taken me.

The ocean rises,
there is no return.
