perhaps

perhaps in another lifetime

I would be wiping away salty ocean waters 

from the crevices of my palms

rather than the saline of my lamentation


perhaps in another timeline

we would have met fourteen years ago

and built sandcastles on the beach together 

laughing and eating sorbet between sporadic conversation


but perhaps we will meet again in our next lives

a time where my anger has dissolved into the sea

where we see everything and one another with clarity

through eyes absent of preconception


and if we do 

I will wait for you then.
