Undertow
I sink beneath your waves
into indigo wonder
down where maps end
beyond safety limits
Above the sun still shines
against a pale blue sky
the boat circles aimlessly
divers split the water
But you lead on, diamond
scales sparkle in wan light
smile a flash of white
webbed hand cool in mine
And now you and I dwell
in the lovely deep dark
slow dancing as we flow
in love's irresistible undertow
