I settle in your sounds
grinning to dissolve heartache that weighs
encapsulated
inside the weakest installments of my heart
fictitiously sending happiness
to save your sadness
forfeiting my truths
to observe your smile
to devour your laughter
a priceless worth
honored
I hold to this privilege
allowing winds to take truths
out to seas
secretly disassembling myself
piece
by piece
I drift
along your shorelines
stretching to trace
your island's outline
I sink
below superficial surfaces
inside your depths
I relinquish air
as truths reassemble me
I settle
upon your ocean's floor
to once again
hear
my own
heart beat
