You were dark like that storm when we pulled in that night. You were frightening and unpredictable with flashes of light in those blue eyes. Your heart beat was like the thunder when I laid my head on your chest, and then you rolled away from me like the wind. Why did you hurt me so? I prayed to the sea and the sky. I prayed to the stars to let me in on the secret that would shine in on your cold heart. I begged with my eyes, and pleaded with my lips. I spilled open while you slept offering my salt to the Earth's salt. You were so cruel like bitter wind that my cheeks and lips were left red and chapped. So I said goodbye to the ocean and you.
Now here I am with one more crack in my heart. You are gone and I don't ever want to do this again.
