I’ll Drift With You
Beneath the amber harbor lights,
The stillness dances, soft and bright.
Reflections whisper on the tide,
And every step feels like a glide.
I’ll drift with you, where shadows glow,
Through wooden paths where sailors go.
The masts like ghosts in the evening hue,
I’ll drift with you, I’ll drift with you.
The salty air, the moon so high,
The twinkle faint in the starry sky.
Each lamp a beacon, golden, warm,
A peaceful call amidst the storm.
I’ll drift with you, through quiet seas,
Past anchored dreams and gentle breeze.
With every light, a vow so true,
I’ll drift with you, I’ll drift with you.
The dockside hums a tune so low,
A secret song that only we know.
And as the night begins to wane,
This glowing harbor sings your name.
I’ll drift with you, till morning’s hue,
Beyond the night, beyond the blue.
In every moment, we’ll start anew,
I’ll drift with you, I’ll drift with you.
I’ll Drift With You is really just me trying to put into words the quiet beauty of a harbor at night. There’s something so peaceful about the way the amber lights reflect on the water, how the tide ripples softly, and how everything feels still but alive at the same time. It’s the kind of moment that makes you slow down and just breathe it all in.
The poem is about companionship—the kind that doesn’t need words. It’s about walking together through the shadows and calm, past anchored boats and the faint sounds of the dock. Each light feels like a little piece of hope, guiding you forward through the night.
To me, it’s a reminder that even in the quietest moments, there’s a sense of movement and renewal. It’s about finding comfort in someone’s presence, drifting together and knowing that with each step, there’s a promise of something new ahead. It’s personal and simple, but I hope it resonates with you, too.
