The Calling Sea
The wayward isles call me to you
come home
sail through the barriers to the deep
where the waters are crystal clear
clean
and the moonlight drips it’s light
on the waters skin
come
drop your anchor
feel the movement
as the sea rocks our souls
like ancient mermaids

L'amour et Psyche by Francois Edouard Picot, 1817, tells the story of Cupid and Psyche. In the Greek mythological story, Cupid would leave every morning before Psyche woke from her sleep. Psyche's outstretched arm shows the space where Cupid would have been sleeping, however he leaves her in the morning. A great depiction of the complexities of love, status and family. "The angel looks back at the sleeping beauty with a goodbye glance– the older cupid teaching us that love, if anything, is fleeting, and you never know when you’ll wake up and your arm will be outstretched around nothing."
