For Danielle

Like the waves on the shore


I'm scared of the blue water

The ocean, unfrozen

I say I like the cold because

It helps me feel more real

Or just more, I'm unsure

What the difference is anymore


I'm scared of the salt in my eyes

Making tears, unclear

If I remember the last time 

I cried, won't lie

I'm not over you yet, you bet

I remember the taste of your lips, fingertips

I miss your kiss


The moon pulls me back

Back to your tides, confide

In me each of your secrets, your regrets

The corners of your soul that 

Even you avoid,  I remember

The words you sing, they ring

Through clear salty air, the care

You take when you shape

You songs all night long
