PERSON Poem: A Tidal Bond, by Nader Haddad

Beneath the cliffs where shadows play,
The tide retreats, then comes to stay.
So too, our hearts, in ebb and flow,
Pulled by forces we scarcely know.

A glance, a word, a whispered name,
Sets alight this smoldering flame.
Yet storms may rise, and winds may tear,
Testing bonds we thought we’d bear.

The sea is fierce, but still it calms,
Its tempests soothed by steady palms.
So too, in love, the trials we face
Are softened by a tender grace.

You are my anchor, my steadfast shore,
The pull that draws me evermore.
Through winds and waves, I’ll never part,
For you’re the harbor of my heart.
