TIDES OF THE HEART

Like the relentless tides
Of the moon and the oceans
So flow, the tides of love
And feelings and emotions.

Love can come to us all
In one great rushing torrent
Or it can ebb and flow away
In one fleeting moment.

And with the tides of the heart
There is no way to forecast
Which of the pools may turn to dust
Or which ones will always last.

Some people dream of riches
And some base their dreams on fame
But some know that with friends and love
Their life will never be the same.

Some go their whole life through
Never to know true feelings
Too caught up in the rush
Of their wheelings and dealings.

And with the tides of the heart
There is no way to forecast
Which of the pools may turn to dust
Or which ones will always last.
