what is love?
when i associate you
with all the other things
that i adore in this world.
and especially when
i associate you
with all the other things
that hurt me in this world.
now... now, that is love.

let there be oceans, god said.
and oceans there were, and god prevailed.
now comes a boy with brown skin, eyes
colored with moonless skies and sunlit seas, who
embraces god’s creation like a childhood friend.
maybe the ocean is his friend and it his;
calling him, drawing him for attention, for
companionship, for love.
life, however, obstructs his path; takes him
away from his soulmate, and
it hurts not to be with the ocean; but
no matter what happens, he will come home soon.
