Sea

Speak.
Go on.
I need to hear you say something

Your voice is a wave
Approaching the shores
I move forth.

Shoosh...
Shoosh...

That's how it gets to me. 
Cold at my feet.

I usually  wait...

'Til my toes go bare, shaky,
White and crumpled 
Like paper.

Then i look at you
In crimson
And in scarlet.

You change... 
The way a baby sleeps,
Slowly closing his eyes.

Shoosh...

Still nothing.
Say something.

The breeze
No matter how gentle
Is not enough.

So if you please,
I'm not delicate.
You should not worry.

Be harsh
Like the world as it is.
