How long did it take not to cry
Waves rolling through my body Crashing, capszed, pulled under
How long did it take to get to shore
Not sunny, sandy beaches
But land; of any kind

Wrote this right after losing my mom Nov 1, 2025. For the women in my group — especially the one who lost her son. Your strength showed me how to keep swimming.
