To My Other Half

About the narrators best friend.

Within the tides, I find them plenty;

Other fish to take as lovers. 

Plenty more, still, to make my acquaintance. 

Swimming beneath the ocean blue,

In corners left unknown,

A creature or four that I may love true, 

But none, 

Not friend nor lover, 

Can be what you have been for me:

The protector of my soul,

The Neptune of my  seas.

Caring for me like no other,

You, forever bound to me, 

My loving brother. 

Author's Note

This is not a blood brother, nor lover. More like a best friend.
