The smell of fish lingers in the air
My hair slowly becomes sticky with salt
There is no sun today
It’s overcast and windy
The swells are small
The boat moves swiftly across the dark water
There is an electricity flowing through me
As the wind hugs my body
I feel it in every crevice
I feel it through every hair
And all of a sudden I miss everything
I miss being touched
And feeling like I was complete
And whole
The wind made me ache for you
Maybe not you
But anyone
Someone

The smell of fish lingers in the air
My hair slowly becomes sticky with salt
There is no sun today
It’s overcast and windy
The swells are small
The boat moves swiftly across the dark water
There is an electricity flowing through me
As the wind hugs my body
I feel it in every crevice
I feel it through every hair
And all of a sudden I miss everything
I miss being touched
And feeling like I was complete
And whole
The wind made me ache for you
Maybe not you
But anyone
Someone
