Gravity

The wind blows
loose sand along
the beach, dancing
over wet and damp 
and pebbles left
by tides and
small children.
Footprints sink,
filling with water,
then melting into the
land as the
birds fly overhead,
curious only for foe
or food.
Hopes float 
on seafoam
and tumble in the
troughs of waves,
borne on Neptune's 
shoulders while we
search the shore for treasures.

Overlook

Scalding depths
of bathtub waves
sing of the peace
my body craves
Stars alight
through window glazed
belie the real
that days are crazed
The hopes atoss
the plans awry
and catching all these
tears denied
The burn of touch
upon my skin
now just a dream
the world locked in
