Gasp of Life

Like a revolution
against time—
the waves enclosed
in the ocean
searching for the shore

Who is the wave and
who is the shore—
we're both one
as we switch the roles

I breathe in and hold
you breathe out and hold—
our breaths become our waves
finding the shore

Between me and you—
a gasp of life
that's where we live

Destiny of the waves—
unfinished love
with the shore

As if waves and shore
had loved before—
yearning for closure
in this one
