adrift
no shore in sight
kicking away at the waves
crashing against my heart
losing my breath
skin
cold, clammy
desperate for warm touch
the breeze light, yet deliberate
swallows my body whole
deep breaths
lungs shallow and wavering
struggling to catch my breath
I wait
wait for warm touch again
wait for the light in the distance
bones ache
dark clouds extinguish the light out
thunder deep and prolonged in the distance
a menacing, yet familiar sight
adrift
no shore in sight
kicking away at the waves
crashing against my heart
losing my breath
