I've been such an open book

but regrets and "what if"s"

and " if I'd only known"

still kept in a hidden place

tempered by

"stay in the here and now"

I soothe my soul by

drowning in this song

in my own "Ocean"

the place where I learned

to breath without air

where I held a seashell

to my ear and heard

not the sound of the ocean

but the sound of

my heart beating

and I saw the color of you

a beautiful drowning

where a seashell lays

carefully tucked in

my heart.
