kneeled
slow, gentle rocking
motion of some inner
tide ruled not by the
moon
not by nature
above, beyond, without and
within nature itself
and it is inside my soul
pushing, swelling , rising
lapping at the edges of
my iniquity

outside, in this shell
I have come to know as my
body, there are waves

my hair
my skin
the curve of my spine
would welcome a waterfall

inside this shell
the ocean roar echoes
echoes
my emotions are
endless in their
ebb and flow

riptide, red tide
low tide

I'm going under
and I finally see
how what I have
feared
is what I need most
