ever since you were young

you were obsessed with the sea.

your father had taken you on a boat

and as you grew you spent

more and more time

alone,

with the sea before you and

a courage in your heart that the boat

could hardly hold.

you took me on deck one day,

when the sun was low and

my heart was racing.

you told me of your plans and

the journeys you wanted to take.

you told me there was nothing more

precious than the sea.

nothing you loved more,

except for me.
