Waves may come and go. But you remain.

I think I have grown scared, of all that leaves, of all I cannot hold onto.

I used to be so confident in the bonds in my life, but now, everything feels shaky, like I am standing on a ground that will break beneath my feet. Honestly, it probably will.

The world suddenly became so much more difficult, and I started feeling like I couldn't really speak anymore. I wish that that too, was an exaggeration.

But your silent presence, has carried me through some difficult tempests.

A moment of quiet,

Where silver light and seashells dwell,

Under our fingers,

Like a token of histories past.

The tides hold us,

As if biding us to come together,

Like a promise

We secretly hold on to.

Where the deep blue meets the evening sky,

We are washed ashore,

Like a silent grace.

You are the sea’s very core,

And carry my heart,

In your very hands.
