She went to water;
she always did.
The heaving ocean
matched her heavy breathing;
it was a Ocean of Tears
like hers.
The swells crashed
against the shore
relentlessly;
life was relentless too
The foam.
The Anger in the Water that day.
She went to water
she always did,
moving among the sand dunes,
face against the wind.
The sea gulls overhead;
caw! caw! caw!
She lifted her arms
the wind blew her sleeves
making a flapping sound
She could hear whispers
between the breakers,
she could hear weeping
among the retreating waves.
She stood there
on the edge of forever.
There is no end to the ocean
Every day it calls to the Sun
and makes it rise
.
Every night it extinguishes it.
She could walk to China;
She could
and no one would know.
The voice said
'I thought I would find you here'
