THE ARCTIC MONSTER BENEATH c.1993
Category Literature
I want to be with you always
While I continue to live for you,
Your innocent eyes strike me
Like warm lightning from the sky.
The sea is now a landless scenery
But your wind is present and I am comforted,
Further much to go,
I want you by my side.
If the sky hides the sun
This darkness abhors the wind,
When every sight becomes near
Each sound I hear is deafening.
I am afloat this wooden raft my sweet child,
I want to sail but I move slowly
The water that carries me
Contains a huge fearful creature.
When the sky is in thick gray oil paint,
The sea is icy solid water.
How I want you near me;
I want to be with you always.

nicely worded bro, to whom are you referring in this literature, i wonder?
