Photo Challenge #4

The waves of the ocean crash against the rocks, 
her silent tears fall, 
her heart beats drowned out by the waves. 
No one hears her cry, 
no one knows her pain. 
The day he left, she said good-bye. 
Angry winds blow, 
waves get higher, her tears fall 
her heart breaks. 
She knows he will never come home. 

Today he watched her cry, 
felt her pain as she knelt in the wet sand, 
he knew heard her cries
and felt her heartbeat as she looked out at the vast seas. 
He longed to touch her, 
longed to heal her pain and let her know
he was there beside her.

As the wind blew and the waves crashed, 
as the storm got angrier, 
her hopes, her dreams, their plan, and their life
all drowning in the wind and the rain. 
Never will she hold him again, 
never will she walk down the aisle to him.
She will never see the joy on his face
as their little one is born.

She longs to join him, longs to be with him. 

He sees the lighthouse, 
the calm in the storm. It hadn't been lit in years, 
As he watches her below, 
he knows what he must do for her, 
he must let her know 
that she can always find her way home.
He is always there, 
always right there with her. 

The light shines through the night, 
a beacon of hope, 
a path where none once stood. 

She sees the light, 
and knows that he is there,
there in her heart, 
the waves still crash, the wind still blows, 
but the lighthouse shines, 
lighting the way, 
the only calm in the storm.
