a light breeze blows through the humidity
and the sun sets behind you and your love
as you both look out over the atlantic
your hands are clenched as one.
the sea oats wave on top of the dunes
and a hundred ghost crabs scurry from their homes.
sitting on a sheet that won't lay down
the sand creeps farther up your ankles and
in between your toes as you curl them
your ears are ringing with silence.
you lay down, eyes shut, knees up, and head back
and when your lids open
you find yourself staring at the sweetest pair of blue eyes.
right in the moment when your lips touch one another
you realize that you never want this to change
and you cope with the feelings that you thought were lost.
blood breaks on the shore in your heart
and the currents rush through your veins
as the waves of love pull you under
and you know that you will never breathe the same salty air again
or ever want to
