To the Sea (day 47)

Until the water calls me

I stay human, with a human memory

I can recall everything about

standing there at high tide, waiting

Watch me as I sing to the sea

 

Even when I’m here

my shadow is outside the window

Something about this discontent

the rocks and dust break under my feet so I’m

dreaming of somewhere else

Watch me as I sing to the sea

 

In the water they can’t break my shell

I can defy gravity

maybe I can conquer the world

"...as I sing to the sea..."

Love the repetition - the waves controlled by the tides, the only way to conquer the world :D
