Horizon

Change is happening 

Everywhere

You can feel it

In the air

The rising tide

The ebb and flow

Finding ways 

To let it go


Horizon meets

The bluest sky

The waves come crashing

Building/cresting

Carry me out to sea 


Time and space 

Have no relevance  

Your internal 

Compass

Cease to exist

The stars will guide

Your way back home

Trust the wind to

Carry you on


Cleanse my soul

With the salt air 

Until my heart

No longer cares

About all that 

Tethers me to land

Lost at sea

And whole again.

Cumulonimbus

 


The crepe myrtles 

Are heavy with rain

Crying 

Bright blossoms 

For me to walk upon

My hair still taste 

Of salt from the ocean

When just yesterday 

I felt at home and

Weightless 

In her arms

I wrap myself

In my dad’s old shirt

Wearing it like armour

Knowing that soon

I will be fighting

The heaviness 

That is lurking 

Just

Around 

The

Corner.
