Remember that time when you stepped off the world and into the sea?
The seals were calling as you made your way across the waves
and all the gulls could say was"Foolish boy".
I clutched your jacket, wet with tears,
and watched until you disappeared in your new lifes' mouth.
I wonder what you're doing today.
Remember that time when you stepped off the world and into the sea?
Remember me?
Haunting, vivid, and with a wonder and mystery that belies its brevity. Masterful work.
ReplyDeleteI feel this. I wonder this.
