<p>With thundering certainty<br></br>My heart beats<br></br>For you<br></br>With thundering certainty . . . <br></br>This ship is destined<br></br>For beautiful horizons<br></br>That blind my frail, human eyes</p>
<p>So, I dream of thee</p>
<p>And places and stars<br></br>Where beautiful disasters<br></br>Collide with what my soul yearns for<br></br>Greater than it may deserve<br></br>And, in that, the esprit that rushed off the waves as we find ourselves far away from home<br></br>And, inhaling, in a land that my heart foresees<br></br>But…</p>
<p>With thundering certainty<br/>My heart beats<br/>For you<br/>With thundering certainty . . . <br/>This ship is destined<br/>For beautiful horizons<br/>That blind my frail, human eyes</p>
<p>So, I dream of thee</p>
<p>And places and stars<br/>Where beautiful disasters<br/>Collide with what my soul yearns for<br/>Greater than it may deserve<br/>And, in that, the esprit that rushed off the waves as we find ourselves far away from home<br/>And, inhaling, in a land that my heart foresees<br/>But for, the timing of a wave<br/>But for, serendipity <br/>The angel that stole their wings<br/>The gift of wonder, how could I choose another? <br/>Though they belong to you</p>
<p>Striving for the crest of my new wave<br/>I sink deeper<br/>Into this love<br/>Unfathomable </p>
<p>Knowing that I shall drown<br/>In beautiful disasters <br/>And, memories that touched the lips of bliss<br/>The music of you melts me, such a heart-rending tryst <br/>Before we looked down over the bow<br/>Took in the magnitude of this waterfall<br/>That once was. <br/>My breath, my life<br/>Changed </p>
<p>If my breath was not so short<br/>So dizzying with the thought of you<br/>My powers could be turned to singular purposes<br/>To make the purpose of my life sing<br/>By un-crossing these stars<br/>With edges of such strength, light gilds from you<br/>And, you shine with good, purity of spirit and the exuberant blush of the flower<br/>Knowing in your nature, my Angel<br/>Being open is being alive<br/>With edges that cut me down to size <br/>Realise <br/>It's only circumstance <br/>That prevents me from chasing miracles imagined, new becomings I treasure</p>
<p>And, the conjuring of your image<br/>Cuts beneath the shimmering surface<br/>And the watery depths of where my voyage<br/>Now takes me</p>
<p>Now, I know<br/>What it feels like to jump<br/>Now, I know<br/>That I never knew I did<br/>Until I went under.</p>
<p>With thundering certainty.</p>
