ocean–

sweet ocean. or salty?

the ebbing and flowing tide, the constant but unpredictable nature. you never fall behind. i am always standing at the shoreline, gazing out into the sea. sometimes i go in, the water up to my knees.

is it fear? is it apathy?

that keeps me here.

keeps me near the shore.

i will never drown, but i will never swim.

is there still happiness within this frame?

as the waves erase the names.
