“Standing here in the sand, my toes wiggling with anticipation from the waves kiss, feeling the sun blanket me in a sense of happiness radiating from his warmth. The crisp salt air caresses my face slowly turning me on with serenity and hope.
I’m listening to the waves crashing into the rocks and it takes me back to a single moment with you. The moment you took me away with you after you engulfed me in this wave that was everything you. You disintegrated into me taking a piece of my essence out to sea with you, watching you slowly disappear into the distance.
All I ever wanted was to find the highest cliff and dive into your ocean, drowning in our love together, never second guessing everything we could be.
Instead, You left me standing on the edge with my toes wiggling in the sand waiting for a kiss from your ocean I was never going to get.”

Iron Gates.
“I hold back my thoughts with iron gates I have mentally built to protect myself and others. Constantly anticipating their weakness growing with each passing day I wake up, opening my eyes seeing them trembling in the back of my mind just waiting for the thoughts I have worked so hard to bury to come crashing through, like a hurricane drowning in the intensity of my own demons.
