Analysis of The horizon



I watch the horizon
where the sea meets the sky
That's the only place
where I...
Find my peace
and fear your eyes.

I watch the blue
...yet is marine
It has that sweet
sweet wash of green.
Chaos and rage
when the waves come,
But deep beneath
stays still and calm.

I watch  the sky
..like a dazzling fire
It covers secrets
I desire..
To find, to know
and to embrace
I feel a tear...
go down my face

I watch the horizon,
a small fine line
That let's the sky
and sea collide.
Between the two
a blue bird flies
Escaped it's cage
and so did I.

About this poem

This poem was inspired by the person I love. Our fate itself it's poetry, a tragedy of two souls burning of not having each other. He's a marine diver so I see him as the water, and I am yet a soul that still discover itself, so I relate myself through the sky, somehow still flying to find the shore for me.
