I am the Tide

Towards the moon I gravitate
As it slips away I slowly fade
Retreating to sleep as the sun draws near
Enveloped in light I shrink within
Until night pulls me in again
Swaddled in darkness my fears subside
Twilight lures me, I am the tide
All things muted in shadows of gray
Suddenly you’re not so far away
Heaven and earth merge when light withdraws
And my heart can feel yours when night falls
My anguish absorbed by the dark of night
Between dusk and dawn my soul finds light
