87 : sea

18 1 0
                                    

your eyes were always the color of the sea
6 am on a crystal summer morning
bluer than blue itself

now i am allowing that gaze
to sink beneath the waves
of the promises and aspirations
i have released to the oceans

i am releasing you to your true love

—what could have been is not what is
