Ocean Day

swirling
beating
almost rhyming
in and out the ocean waves

oh so salty cold

walking away from you
the sand squishes up over my feet
between my toes
into the heels of my blue jeans

follow me
into this sea - join me
this side of these crashing waves
let us splash
and be children and lovers in the same moment

let time flow on the other side of the tide
may it wash over us
and never move us from this instant

swirling
beating
almost rhyming
this side of love's crashing wave
it's oh so cold
walking away from you
