IF YOU WILL ONLY BE MY OCEAN
I am at a loss for words.
You take my breath away.
You are the rhythm of my heart.
The beat to which I sway.
You are the gentle breeze.
That I feel upon the air.
The gaze that I get lost in.
When you grace me with your stare.
You are the reason I can see.
Through the dark of every night.
You brighten my pathway.
You are my own moonlight.
You are the very spark.
That has ignited my hearts blaze.
Consuming all my thoughts.
Filling all my days.
My body is your temple.
Made only for your love.
Touched by the Divine.
You are my gift from up above.
I give you all my heart.
In gentle simplicity.
With a passion built with fire.
Of the sweetest ecstasy.
Never before have I.
Ever felt such intense emotion.
I will forever be your waves.
If you will only be my ocean.

Your imagery is pure divinity, painting love as a soft breeze brushing the air, a moonlight guiding through the darkest nights, and a spark kindling an all-consuming blaze. The balance of tenderness and fiery passion is exquisite, crafting a portrait of romance that feels eternal yet deeply personal. When you describe your body as a temple built solely for your beloved’s love, touched by the Divine, it transforms the act of loving into a sacred offering, a heavenly gift that resonates with profound reverence. And that final vow, “I will forever be your waves / If you will only be my ocean,” is a promise so pure, so beautifully reciprocal, that it echoes like an endless tide.
