when did you last see the sea?
poem or something...

when did you last see the sea
when did you last feel the breeze
these are the moments I live for
the slight of touch
the mist in the morning
the afterglow aftershock of the night before
when did you last laugh until you cried?
when did you last cry until you laughed?
these are pivitol moments
worth remembering
celebrating, commemorating, memorialising
to yesterday's wins, losses, bad days, holidays and high days
when did you last tough the sky
when did you last reach out and grab for the clouds, sun, moon and the stars
as I grow older, I want to stay grounded
less inclined to reach up
less inclined to reach out
than I should
