Canto I. His Thoughts
All these days I come to the waterfront to catch a glimpse of an alluring sea... And there you are, And there you are...

[A sunset on the Pacific Ocean]
{A patron} I saw her standing there again, gazing at the lonely horizon. She seemed lost in contemplation; I craned to hear her thoughts; Her appearance most sincere. {An admirer} All these days I come to the waterfront to catch a glimpse of an alluring sea. Solitude in open space is why I’ve come; come to twilight’s door. And there he is, And there he is... ‘Why does my reputation precede me?’ Solitude being one thing; but, lone in solitude rustles at my legacy of woe. And there he is... I see a handsome man, but there’s more in this fetching appearance; it’s how he gazes at the sunset with calm attention and the way he sits so proud on that wrought iron chair as though it were a throne. And there he is... And I know this; it is not the calm attention or the chair but what’s inside that makes this man to appear so debonair . [How to put that into words and show I care] I am to be weak and pretty and in distress! My preference, a warm caress. I would like to know what draws him to come this way. I have my thoughts, but it’s his heart song I so desire to hear. His composure draws me nigh. The sun setting makes my heart aglow and I long to wash upon the shore of his terminus. [How to put that into words and show I care] His strength is quite compelling, but I would wait for the right moment in time to say the words that make him feel the strength I see; the strength of his being that entrances me. [How to put that into words and show I care] And there he is... Inside I stand so close to him; near the waterfront, near the sunset, near his heart, near his soul; just outside his touch. [How to put that into words and show I care] I am to be weak and pretty and in distress! My preference, a warm caress. And I know this: I see strength; I hear psalms; he draws me nigh; he makes my heart aglow; all this, inside me, near the waterfront, near the sunset, near his heart, so near his soul. Still so far away... [How to put that into words and show I care]
All these days I come to the waterfront to catch a glimpse of an alluring sea...
And there he is, And there he is...
Canto III. A Place In The Sun
I am to be weak and pretty and in distress! My preference, a warm caress. And I know this: I see strength; I hear psalms; he draws me nigh;
