You are the ocean
I come into your life And take all you have to give Not giving in return Until I decide you have nothing left to offer

I noticed it When you talked to her. The notes in your voice Had a certain lightness to them. A certain ease. The same way You used to talk to me

I have a special relationship with poetry. She is the friend I can stick in my pocket indefinitely And when we meet again it’s like I never left. She’s familiar, and comforting And reminds me that she is the only thing I know that I can count on When everything goes to ****
