To Be a Lover of the Sea

The Sea always loved the Shore

and the Shore adored the Sea

but the Sea craved more

The Sea loved the Moon

and the Moon loved the Sea

She wanted motion

and so they danced happily

The Shore was content with this, though she always missed the Sea

Embracing her each time she came back to her

the Sea still loved the Shore, greeting her each time she came back with treasures

each from a new place around the world

The Shore would always wait patiently until her lover came home again

The Sea still wanted more

she wanted the Sky, and the stars

In the daytime, she would beam a bright blue up at the Sky

mimicking him, vying with the clouds for his attention

At dusk, she would reflect the beauty of the orange sunset

showing the Sky exactly how beautiful he is

And at night, she would mirror the wonder that is the stars, rippling on her never still surface

The Shore loves the Sea, always waiting for her to return once again, if but for only a brief moment in time.

The Moon loves the Sea, dancing eternally with her, twisting and turning in ways only they can understand.

The Sky loves the Sea, each of them finding beauty in one another, that they were incapable of seeing alone.

The Sea loves them all, holding each dear to her, like the pearls lying deep within her depths, making time for each of her lovers.

Her eyes mimics the sky

Glistening in the sun.

I could drown in her beauty

as she is just

So deep and full of mystery

She can seem furious at times,

like she could kill with just a look

But underneath I know she is as calm as ever

She feels like home.

And her name is the sea

the sea called my name

it whispered secrets I had hidden and disowned

I let it

take me

move me

change me

instead of fighting to stay above water

I let it drown me

Softly

Quietly

until I molded into blue

the sea cliff

i run as fast as i can with you

hold on to my hand little raven

as we dance on top of the sea cliff

what do you wish my dearest maiden?

hearts from the royalty of golden?

what am i to do? oh my raven

“The war will end. The leaders will shake hands. The old woman will keep waiting for her martyred son. That girl will wait for her beloved husband. And those children will wait for their heroic father. I don’t know who sold our homeland. But I saw who paid the price.”

— Mahmoud Darwish; Palestinian poet.

Time’s tide pulled them far,

Silent years erased warm laughs,

Strangers with shared stars.

You came into my life and made everything else feel like a rehearsal. Love always came to me as a question, but with you, it felt like an answer. I didn't know I had put up walls until you brought them crashing down. I couldn't figure out why love was different with you until I realized it hadn't been love with anyone else.

And May The Screams You Ignored Haunt You Every Night:

This was a choice.

A choice of complacency.

A choice to ignore.

A choice to be willfully ignorant.

We funded it.

We cheered for it in our actions, or lack thereof.

And if there is anyone to blame, it is us.

It is our fault for not taking our power back.

It is our fault for choosing to value material items over the welfare of our fellow humans.

It is our fault for not demanding more.

“Why only Palestine?”, they ask.

“Why don’t you focus on problems in your own backyard?”

Palestine is our backyard.

Palestine is the litmus test, for if we didn’t fund the fascism in Palestine, we ourselves would be free.

If we didn’t find Israel, we ourselves would have basic human rights.

If we didn’t elect the corrupt, the world would not be the military industrial complex’s playground.

If we reclaimed our power, our elected officials would work for us, and not their next lobby check.

We chose this.

We choose it with every dollar we spend, every piece of media we consume, and with every scream we ignore.

Yes, there are times we live for somebody else.
