romance

[creativesoul]

i thought that he was going to be the one
yet there was this moment where he crashed like a north shore wave into small pieces of coral
a small hand reaches for something on another level
touch me she cried
i am frozen, it hurts
for a while i could feel you and your heat
but i am lost now
shallow at the shoreline
she was swirling in a tide pool of her past
the loves she had tried to share
he had left her in a pool of salt brine and baby fish eggs
waiting endlessly for them to hatch
she finally gave up and went back out to sea
later having realized her mistake
the waves would not relent
she had made her choices
the swelling of her mermaid tail
made all the efforts seem to no avail
she looked at the reflection of his face in her heart
wondering how she would start
this love this communication she felt
but how and what for -did this all come apart
the sand bar was calm and a place to lay
when all the sadness had gone away
swimming used to bring on a peace
now her heart would not cease
to want and hunger for his love
now or never
was her own resolve
