On The Other Side

Water is rolling towards me
threateningly
and I look over
to the other side
that beckons and calls me
so far it seems
so close it feels
the heart already grasps
what the eyes yet
cannot hold
for it knows
it has wings to fly

It knows that
on the other side
of the ocean,
of fear,
of separation
there’s you
