SMALL TALKS

oceans.

(disclaimer!: this is a very old collection of poems, many that i wrote a long time back, and even though many of the poems are still so familiar to me, they were written right when i had begun writing and had yet to develop more skills/ discover a style that worked for me. i have since improved, however this collection of poetry will still remain published, even though it may not be some of my best work).

the beginning

-

find me when the oceans collide and the sky bleeds red,

salty water washing over wounds
aching bones and a hazy mind

find me when you've been pulled too much and it's gets too tough,

vigorous waves clashing down
sore skin and watery eyed

find me when the sky grows dark
and you're trying to mend a broken heart,

bitter water scatters the surface
pain in the chest and heavy thoughts

find me when your muscles are shaking and it feels as though your body's breaking,

waves lapping to coat the ground
furrowed brow and trembling hands

find me when the oceans collide and the sky bleeds red,

know if you're alone i'll always be a home where you can rest your head.

- the oceans between us.
