The salty breeze buffets my face
Persists at breakneck pace
Like a river soaked through the sand
Sinking again
A siren’s song cuts through the haze
And i believe every word
Tell me the way you treat yourself
About the time you spend alone
Home lost at sea
Do you view your self as temporary
I envy your shell
Wish I could be someone else
Seashеlls ground into the past
Become thе sand on which I build my house
This is the stinging cuts in the sea
It is the tangled kelp restraining me
I mold my bones to mimic yours
To fit a shell I place above all else
And all the things that I thought were clear
Float next to you and they disappear
The lines in sand that ill never see
Deceitful eyes assuring me
Shrivelling up like souvenirs of golden sand and sunburned skin
I envy your shell
Why can’t I be someone else
The sinking sand consumes the ground
Cannot return to when the tide was out
Two voids of blue, all I perceive
Skin torn by tangled kelp restraining me
I mold my bones to mimic yours
To fit a shell I place above all else
Thirty times about four months
Crabs all die of loneliness
Throwaway with shell to match
Collecting seashells til the chest bursts its latch
