ebb & flow
wave crash caught
thoughts upon the shells
sheared down to pebbles
beach-strewn and lost
cells divide and gain
clawing against the tide
strain for the promised land
to undo paradise
a million bits of memory
put together builds a path
pulls against the unspoken fear
that rests amongst the depths
a decision to push forward
or a need to seek new air?
this body of water
under moonlight clear
