storms and squalls

Is what we had, who we now are  
The diamonds tide sparkle hide the clouds  
The storm beyond horizons curve  
  
The brig it claims calm sea  
But tenticles of doubt reach out from the deep  
And drags regard out of its chained keep  
 
The steadfast anchor holding fast  
That slipping like seaweed  from your  grasp  
 That was so strong to feel its collapse  
 
Waves that crash, dash rays of hope  
The deluge of feelings swamped the bare soul  
And scream at the clouds when you dreams have eloped  
 
A privateer he plundered from your heart  
The peaks disturbed synoptic chart  
Drenched with passion no end and no start

The rocks tear at the keel
The treasure sank in fathoms deep
Neptune's gain that wreck so breached
 
For calm bring the spirit reborn  
Storm the veil a life to cut and fall  
And then be reunited after all  
 
And then become the breaking dawn
Like Halcyon and Cerex  in the spray unites
The iridescent Kingfisher to flash before the eyes
