ocean.. (an apology)

And then I take the next step..
I look back..
Beautiful prints on nature’s golden..
The child in me now ecstatic..
I’ve left a mark.. it’ll last forever..
And then you come..
You erase it ..
You ruthless scoundrel ..
You heartless beast…

Your waves..
Splash across my canvas…
And you selfishly obliterate my passion..
Don’t you feel any pain..
When you take it all away..
When you destroy my name..
When You suck in the sand..
Leave behind a void..
And where once were my foot prints..
You let someone else tread..
You let new flesh..
Touch you…
Embossing their signature..
On sand… that they promised was mine..

Agh.. you selfish beast…

And now my world hates you..
I’ve told them all how cruel your actions were..
How you ended it without a warning..
And how you let someone else take my place..
With just a wave…
I’ve told them all about your storms..
And how you wiped out existence..
And also how you made it all too humid to even breathe..
And how you barbarously suffocate…

The sun had gone back for now..
People back in their bones..
It is just you and me for a while..
Though you may’nt see it..
And I’ve lost the right to complain..

So I look at you..
Distance separating us..
You no longer drench me..
And I guess my flesh was never a reason enough..
And I ask you..
‘why’

You bring upon a storm..
You throw me back..
Oh bastard..
How I loathe our very unison..
So I walk off..
Atleast I turn..
And I take another step..
To realize..
Another print..
Another mark..


I look at you..
This time..
Your vastness shows me..
The liquid of your sorrow..
Unshared..

Of how it was just about my steps..
My sand..
My marks..

And never about your waves..
Waves begging for mercy..
Asking me to stop walking..
Like arms out-stretched..
Pleading me to pause..
Just for a while..
And listen to the melody..unsung..
The ode..unsaid..

Now I am far away..
And I may never dare return..
Cause I know..
Your breeze is too strong to give me another chance..
And my muscle to weak to even try..

But I guess I can see beneath the unruffled surface..
And that I can see through
The unreasoned prejudice..

I can now see you twitch ..
Just a little..
When the sun goes down your throat..

And the tides..
Who push you..and throw you off..
Are now visible..
Faintly though..

And now I see..
How you stand there alone..
Washing off prints..
As you hold on and hope..
That someday..
Someone..
Won't..
Walk this fast..
