The Rhythm of the Waves

We fear the droplets

of an infinite ocean;

the small nightmare

of drowning

in the vastness

that we are.

Adrift in a sea

we carry within us…

The force of the waves

must not be conquered;

we learn their rhythm

and learn to ride them

within ourselves.

And the whole sea

must be drunk

in drops of love,

until the salt

learns to turn crystal

and shine within us.
