The cradle of the sea, where whispers blend,
A love story begins, without an end.
His heart once tethered to a gentle soul,
Now adrift, seeking solace in waters cold.
Her laughter, once a melody so clear,
Now echoes in the depths, where shadows leer.
A tsunami’s wrath tore her from his grasp,
Leaving him with a wound, an eternal clasp.
Day and night, he stands beside the waves,
Listening to the sea, to the love he craves.
He watches as the ocean roars and sighs,
Hoping to glimpse her in the morning rise.
He walks the shore with eyes that never rest,
Haunted by the love that water wrested.
In every wave, he hears her whispered name,
In every ripple, sees her fleeting flame.
Diving deep into the ocean’s embrace,
He seeks her in the current’s gentle grace.
Scuba gear his armor, he explores,
The world beneath, where her spirit soars.
Surfing the crests, he rides the stormy sea,
Hoping to find her, where the wild waves be.
Each surge a promise, each swell a hope,
But the ocean’s depths are vast, and he must cope.
Once, in despair, he let the high waves take him,
Believing her hands would embrace and wake him.
The roaring surf, a lover’s final kiss,
He thought her arms would bring him to bliss.
Nights are long, the stars a silent choir,
As he tells their tale to the moon’s pale fire.
His tears blend with the salt of the sea,
A testament to love’s fierce decree.
He sits upon the sand, the tide his guide,
Imagining her return with each evening tide.
Her voice, a whisper in the ocean’s breath,
A haunting melody that transcends death.
Kayaking through the dawn’s first light,
He chases her shadow in the misty sight.
Paddle strokes echo his relentless quest,
For the love that dwells within his chest.
Snorkeling through the coral reefs so bright,
He searches for her in the aquatic light.
The fish and flora, silent witnesses,
To his undying love, his endless guesses.
He never found her, not in the deepest blue,
But in his heart, their love always grew.
The sea became his sanctuary, his muse,
A place where love and sorrow could fuse.
In every dive, in every wave’s caress,
He felt her presence, a lover’s sweet duress.
She was the ocean, vast and untamed,
And he, forever by the water, remained.
His life a testament to a love so deep,
A devotion that the sea could not sweep.
In the end, he found her not in sight,
But in the eternal dance of day and night.
His journey endless, his quest so pure,
A love that even the sea could not obscure.
And in the ocean’s depths, his soul resides,
Where love, undying, forever abides.
