Silently,
I stare out
Toward the Sea

Quietly,
I stand,
At the harbor

Unrelenting,
My gaze fixes
At the horizon

A line,
In the distance,
Where you may emerge

Day by day,
I stand,
Silently awaiting

Day by day,
I stare out

Hoping to see
Your returning ship

Persistent,
I visit,
Again and again

Hoping to hear
Someone call your name

But,
Time and time again,

Alone,
I came,

Alone,
I went

Alone,
I stand,
At the docks

Alone,
I stare out
Into the distance

Alone,
I face
The empty horizon

And,
With tear filled eyes,
I shout your name
