Ocean

I keep on the sand made solid
by man.
not the sand that is therapy for feet

i have no need to venture there

i do not walk out
not because i can’t

I don’t run or marvel at you
the way i imagine others to

You are different for me

You are the unnoticed backdrop to it all
nothing special or novel about you

uncomprehending those that are in love

you were always there

i am not drawn to you
because you are in me

Your largess is knowing

Growing in your proximity,
i do not know the gorging
on the starvation of lack of
being with.

Trips West do not illicite
The Amazement

We have an understanding
i did not know until now.
