Tears Are Salty Like The Ocean


It looked like us
sitting in the sand
because we were

We both wanted
our feet to touch
the ocean

Your eyes began
to leak drops
of salted water

so I held you
as best I could
Soon the drops

stopped Our feet
edged over rocks
trying not to slip

A bracing shock
of cold covered
every toe

Standing on the
large flat rock
we looked out

our feet in water
boats nearby
a horizon to reach
