At the edge of the rock,
as I sat with my legs suspended in air,
I harked back to sitting by the pool,
when late at night,
legs submerged in water then;
I spoke with someone,
of distance and hope

Can I help but wonder,
how we did not align,
just like the things we talked of
how we did not align,
just like the things we talked of

as they watch me go by
just as silently as artists of mime

does the sand sneaking under our feet,
while stealing some of us,
to hand out, at every sea’s greet

who has now known
the greatest longing that there is,
of him who has remained invested
in all the rights, at all the wrongs

Thus by the river, the wind blows
a fierce rhythm as it speaks to me,
and speaks of what, I know not,
as I travel to the one who knew her odds

Who hushing words into my ear,
like the old winds did,
made me feel alive once,
the way a tickle inside did

And suddenly, I see,
the pages of my diary
the pages of my diary
that have been blank so long
are all filled out at once
in remembrance of the forgone.
