Seasaw

by Prerna

Within me,

a deep sea
I swim up but go down

Light at the end

Seems almost within reach.

Not for long

Will I be alone.

The sea is me

And I the sea.

No divisions,

No limits.
I am infinite.
The sea one day

Will be as free as me.

Store is closed today

But I still go to shops

Wanting to capture water,

End up catching drops.

Today is the last day

It shall be closed.
I’ll be a loyal customer

Till my last breath.

In the beginning, there was me

And the sea.
We were lonely
Before we found each other.

The truth unspoken
The self undiscovered.

Now together at last,
My soul is united

With the deep.
I’ll never leave me again.
