Just a little while, my love,
Till we be over that horizon-
Over to the water 
That will kiss at our patient feet. 

Just a little longer more
While time turns its knotted neck,
To a place where we can be alone and
Hear the waves roll against the sand. 

Just a closing of our eyes 
That open to a fresh new dawn,
Whilst the rotten bark gets peeled off
Of our aging rooted trunks. 

Just a while more, my love, till
We embark our journey again.
To renew the kindled fire that 
Was sparked under that high tide's moon.
