wave after wave

what good are these vows.

we might as well speak them into seashells,
and hold
them to our ears,

turning them over to empty
them out.

nothing.
vapors, harsh whispers.

words that don't count.

like the sea from a distance
as you drive
away

still saying
things that don't matter.

wave after breaking wave.
