and my ears must be shells.

i can hear the ocean,
when i close my eyes.

my skin grows soft with
the salt and sand.

my skin grows dark
covered by the light.

we hold hands, we laugh.
walking with the moon's pull.

this crash and this ebb.

this sweet heart break.

this starry sky.

the sand pipers,
skitter and feed,
so busy, always just
in front of the wave.

you watch them and
wait for the catch.

catch. switch. sweep. see.

                you are the catch

so, dear one, you need
not wait.

you break your own heart.

my cool girl.
the beat inside my heart.

do not be defined
by the world on the
other side of this bridge.

be defined by the universe
inside your soul, the
way the words make you.
the way you make worlds.

shaped by you.
shaping you.

you know,

     spin. sing. soar. spring.
     wave. weave. wing.
     cry. pray. say. fly.

you make yourself.
