i say "what i am becoming?"
and instantly know the answer.

i'm becoming you, and i'm becoming me,
and i'm letting the tide turn me over.
i'm letting myself float out to sea.

give my life for love,
give my life for you
and the extension of you i can
touch, and hold, trace his name
along his stomach.

i let his back hold me, used to
dependency. give my life to
the never ending circle of
curation and creation.

i'm turning over in the tide

drifting out to sea so pleasantly.

i float toward infinite salvation of the soul.
