A Web from the Sea ____ AKSHR


 A Web from the Sea

We have woven a web, you and I, attached to this world but a separate world of our own invention

We have made a city of our own, a place of commerce and business, but the sea comes in like the rain

We are drenched by waves and whispers and then, as if when we were sleeping, it washes us away, out to sea

When I wake up I am alone on your island. My clothes are washed away, lost. The sand is damp on my skin

I am hungry, I have no shelter. I cannot find you.

I search for you in the forest and on the shore but I can't find you anywhere.
