Maiestas
The sea is calling you, Maiestas,
A thousand voices, deep and dark--
There's an ache here:
A chest filled with secrets, breathless.
Why must you rule alone?
Oleanders cast to sea to remember
Times of golden rays on blue;
And a soft whispering wind, smiling.
The birds know you
Singing an ancient song to the moon.
Water lapping the shores,
Salt and sighing.
When the ships of decades pass
Guided by your light,
A tale is born, in honor
Of cold skin and a warm heart
Never forgotten.
A thousand voices, deep and dark--
There's an ache here:
A chest filled with secrets, breathless.
Why must you rule alone?
Oleanders cast to sea to remember
Times of golden rays on blue;
And a soft whispering wind, smiling.
The birds know you
Singing an ancient song to the moon.
Water lapping the shores,
Salt and sighing.
When the ships of decades pass
Guided by your light,
A tale is born, in honor
Of cold skin and a warm heart
Never forgotten.
