Exploring

Lets get high together

off of dice and shrimp scampi

while the rain runs down the glass

and reminds us of the ocean

 

They say that eighty percent of the ocean

is still unexplored.

Trapped in small crevices

are mermaids who sing of love

 

I want to meander through its darkest

and deepest; where blue turns black

I want to see the tears of small creatures

who have never seen the sun

 

And then I wakeup to a heartbeat

Of a ship I know will never be abandoned

In the branches of his neck

I mend all the pieces.
