You Will Know
The salty air
I sit on the sand
Still warm from a day of sun
And watch you swim
Swim.
…That is all we ever did.
observing each other for the first time
exposed.
the purple sky of a setting sun
signals a return to home
the first touch
you will know on the first touch.
a spark between two souls.
you will not be able to stop
you will never want to stop.
Unfamiliar ground
How could it feel so right,
-the unknown?
…will I feel that again, now that you’re gone?
They told me the water took you
When I was not around
How could that be!?
I watched you swim a thousand laps
You could conquer any type of sea
I go back to that evening
Your hand on me
We knew from the beginning
Our love would always run deep
And now, here I am
with memories
…
You left this world in the thing you loved most
Peacefully, surrounded by the very thing
That brought us so close
Swim.
You swam until you could no more
It was the best way you could’ve gone
For it was near the water in which you found love.
And I’ll still be by the water
But I’ll never be alone.
Your spirit lies within me
I feel you everyday
And I will always remember you
Until we meet again.
