hahei

weightless, a slip
and fall
against the shore
a wave too strong
or
a step too light
but it doesn’t matter
i’m alright
and i have to admit
it felt better than it sounds
to release my grip
on the sand and
crash

i watched the waves rush in
i felt them pull hard back
most of the time
i held fast

there’s a moment
encapsulated
in there
you can never explain
or understand

between my self
and the ocean’s
what is?
