at the shoreline

you knew at an early
age that
the ocean
was something
beyond anything
you knew
before,
or will ever be.
it's the mystery
of what can't be seen,
the power behind
it all.
the cold pull
upon our legs as we
swim
into the deep.
we long for the sea.
the beauty
of it.
the danger of it.
the magnificent breadth
of its majesty.
we stand
with our feet in the sand
as a sun falls down
upon us.
we look for answers
that we can't
find
elsewhere.
