Waves

Go and hit me. Overwhelm me, like a really powerful wave would do.

Drag me out to sea. Give me a taste of what it feels like when you are drowning.

But then, after all of it, let me re-emerge. Let me breathe in and breathe out. Make me feel truly alive.

I wish I could forget how to swim. How to stream quietly between two banks day after day.

I wish I could just overflow, like if I was a rebel river.

I wish we could just constantly influence and agitate the tides. Letting myself go, together, with you.
