I just need the ocean back at my fingertips, flowing in through each empty space that separates each of my five fingers to
sort out each entwined
life-altering experience
off my back
I just need to watch the salty waves rush in through my eyes
maybe it’ll be able to burn away all my fat linings
and eat away, eat away all my baggage
and hard feelings
I know that it could -
I just need to be back by the ocean
I can’t change when I’ve got so much to carry
and it doesn’t seem like you carry as much
your nowhere landlocked, you’re free
you’re still
and since I’ve moved all my life, I’ve never felt still
yet you made me feel still
wherever I went you were there waving for me, you were the only thing that remained to follow me for everything and everyone else always got left behind
but now you’re waving still, but so far away
everything is fully changed again but not even you stayed
