My heart is an ocean
You came to swim in it
Traversed its depths
Made it your own
What was empty before
Now full with you
Then you went back to land
Left it wanting
My tides reach for you
Only so far then retreat
Was I not deep enough
Not challenging enough
You were expert
Come and gone
Never here
My heart is an ocean
And you have drained it

A moving poem John though certainly reflecting sadness. Rains will come though and rivers will flow and with time may you find your heart's ocean full once again. Thanks for writing.
