Line
I drew a line in the sand
It curved a little, spiked around
I was generous, I was kind
I tended to my line, boxed myself in
You saw a line in the sand
Took it as a challenge, a game
One touch, one millimeter
Closer, closer--
I retract casually,
Pushed to the shore.
The ocean sings, and
I dive.
Sinking
Pink waves ripple above me.
I hear crashes and currents,
Muffled by submersion.
I look down
And surrender.
An ocean inside now;
Raging, relentless,
Tugging life away.
I try to escape her.
It’s too late, I chose this.
Floating peacefully,
Up, up, up,
Calm...
