Co-Existing

Co-Existing

Alone as I stand,

The ocean's breeze flows through my hair

And I wiggle my toes in the sand,

And yet I must brace myself for what's

To come of me next,

It's unpredictable,

Uncontrollable,

So unexpected.

How can one's heart be so little

And yet feel so much,

So much, when I'm near your touch

I can't control it,

My heart just beats so,

Extraordinarily fast,

I wish you could feel it,

Or maybe you do know what it feels like,

Being speechless and strained for air

And every breath you take,

Just draws you in,

There's no resisting,

It's just you and me,

Co-existing.
