On a cruise ship, somewhere in the Atlantic Ocean, I came up from downstairs and Marcella was sleeping. I woke her up for a moment that we spoke only a few words. I told her that the ship was rocking and the waters were rough, but she said that she knew that. I told her I loved her, and she went back to sleep. A thought came to me, and I walked out onto the terrace. I was feeling the wind, and looking at the crescent moon. Then the words below came to me.<\/p>\n
Always Will <\/p>\n
The winds are howling. <\/p>\n
The ship is rocking <\/p>\n
Not the peace we had before<\/p>\n
Foundation shifting <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Yet the Moon softly lights <\/p>\n
The dark night <\/p>\n
The wild ocean <\/p>\n
Like it did before <\/p>\n
Like it always will<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And you are with me<\/p>\n
I feel you<\/p>\n
Your breath<\/p>\n
Your touch<\/p>\n
Your peace <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And you will be here <\/p>\n
When all this calms<\/p>\n
I know this<\/p>\n
Because you were before<\/p>\n
You always will be <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The winds will subside<\/p>\n
Skies will brighten<\/p>\n
And we will walk in a glow <\/p>\n
Hand in hand <\/p>\n
Like we did before. <\/p>\n
Like we always will<\/p>\n
Always will <\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
