The water is deceptively
deeper
than it appears
wavering in and out
on the horizon
deeper
than it appears
wavering in and out
on the horizon
Wading further out
feeling soaked
broken untethered
alone
Working up the courage
walking on sharp
pieces of shattered
sea shells
foamy froth
undulating beneath
Separating from the hold
that was placed
becoming whole again
finding my identity
