At The Edge Of The Ocean Poem by Eila Mahima Jaipaul

At The Edge Of The Ocean

Rating: 5.0


join me, at the edge of the ocean.
where you'll please me
slowly.
and give me words
mixed with saltwater and sand…
when I don't know what I feel.

it's in those times, sieving hurt,
trying to capture other essences between my fingers,
that I'll find different ways
to say I love you.

with peonies,
in Augusts and Februaries,
with nearly buttoned gowns,
and cranes … letters delicately placed
in their feathers.

all the while you’ll kiss my tears.
their wetness
mark, and remain on your lips
in unreserved surrender.
