I think the reason so many lovers get married on the beach
Is because it’s the one place
The only public place
Where marriage is all around you,
Where the ocean marries the shore
bring me whipped-cream foam
on top of sea-salted air
don't forget the occasional delicacy
from the unknown shore
where other customers are waiting--
here, bring them this feather
Take me far away to a paradise where I can listen to the sound of the ocean against the shore instead of my heart thumping inside of me when I am near you
Please get out of my fucking head
I want to die
My home rests on two shores,
North and South
A house with two front doors,
My love has two faces.
I am two people confronting our rift
Letting the waters take us adrift,
one day
I was walking somewhere new
singing an unfamiliar tune
in a voice that was not my own.
the sand uncomfortable in my shoes
and the wind skipping across my skin
chilling me through
When in October, the showers did fall
The fierce winds piercing, they had destroyed all
A roaring monster, an ominous beast
Last summer
we tiptoed
across
driftwood panels.
Barefoot, but
carefully alert
we’d watch as
poison ivy
clung onto
both sides of
the boardwalk,
embracing
