My love went to the sea.
I could not go.
It left without me.
Weighed down
I sat,
Then lay back.
The sand formed
The heaviness of my heart.
Long I watched
The seagulls
While listening to ghosts
Crash on the beach,
Rolling up
Close.
There, like a ruptured castle
Salt water still escaping,
I lay broken.
My kingdom lost.
It left without me.
I could not go.
My love went to the sea.
