The Shore Party
The grill a child begging for more even
though its mouth it has food, food it could never have.
My friends float in the water
A boat speeds by,
bobbing up, down up down,
unaffected, like nothing had happened.
Conversations are replaced with laughter.
Taking about life so long ago
like a second life, a life that is mine but i can never have
things would never do now
Friends I no longer have.
The conversation moved back and forth, up and down….
After a while I realize I'm staring, at the depths of the ocean I'm sinking,
I raise my hand, try to wave I get pulled out.
The cold water reminds me, again the lesson of humility,
As I look back the water still move up and down back and forth, as if nothing had every happened.
