Nautilus

This was my hiding place, my sanctuary that I once called

home -I belonged. So many times, so many concentric

circles. How many times have we been here? The salty

waters here brought me many tales of the deep and

thoughts of forever. Am I relationship-less or just a

sailor without his ship? In all fair honesty, I gave you

all.

I gave you everything. If I could walk on water I’d take

you out to sea. Even our heavy oars couldn’t get us this

far. We have only skimmed the surface of the ocean. Why

were we always searching for something that was never

there? -Never there. The white horses upon the sea were

waiting for our dreams to grow their wings. Where the

hungry come to feed the weak come to fall. I will never

drown beneath your waves. This, this is never over I am

moving on. Moving on! I can no longer call this place

home. Happiness is only real when shared.
