Temporary euphoria
as i enter his world of bliss
He looks over at me, smiles and whispers i love you
The suns rays captivate me, as i lay there inhaling deeply
I feel the sand between my toes, the sky so clear and blue
I feel the warmth of his body, i feel the warmth of his heart
He takes hold of my hand, and tells me to come with him
to escape the world, to run away from everyone
The passing breeze cools my flushing face
This is love
I am his and he is forever mine
I hear the waves nearing, oh how calm is this feeling
He takes my breath away
I am in love with him
I breathe a sigh of relief
I have found what i was searching for
My mind is finally at ease.
This is love
Just me, him, and this vast ocean
Seclusion, togetherness
A tear falls from my eye as i look at my surroundings
This is all i ever wanted
It has finally been granted to me
He grabs my face, and wipes my tear
He looks at me, as i gaze into his beautiful eyes
This is love, im drowning in it
This is temporary euphoria
The sky around us seems to darken in an instant
The waves come crashing in, as i hear the anger of the sea beside me
His face is stone cold, his touch no longer soothes me
He looks down at me
I see emptiness in his eyes
I see a bleak future with him
Im drowning in defeat
Those were bittersweet memories
A tear rolls down my face
as he looks down at me
He lets it fall, as the granules of sand absorb my hurt
So much has changed in such little time
My best friend has now become my worst enemy
This is not love
I just persuaded myself that it was
His beauty quickly faded and now im left feeling jaded
We have grown so apart, although we stand here toe to toe
I am not his, and he was never mine
My disappointment in him is oceans wide
This is not the man i once loved
This is temporary euphoria
