we are waves crashing
we are strength and beauty combined
for every time that we chance
upon the shore,
we end up going a few steps back
falling farther away from land
taking us deeper into unseen depths
where what lies beyond is uncertainty
you should be the sand
while i should be the water
that imprints patterns
along your body
or i should be the air
taking you to endless streams
where we could be whirlwinds
gathering up bounties
for our flawed existence
but we are waves crashing
and even if the sun
becomes too extreme
or the shore is too far from reach
i won’t get tired
of falling in and out with you
even in midnight summer dreams.
