Gravity
Walking in wee hours, time on my hands
Lost in my scattered thoughts at bay,
Listening to the wind, the crashing waves
Currents pulling, pushing them away.

Enchanted by the moonlit ripples
Nearing the water’s edge, mesmerized,
I sit, reaching with hands held out
In hopes of touching them somehow.

I recalled out of the blue once
He asked me if he deserves a chance,
My heavy heart throbbed deafeningly
Like the tides, I was pulled effortlessly.

'She's my everything, like gravity in place
To her, I am and will always be bound,
Before we met, we're childhood friends-
I hope she’d love me this time, around.'

And so, both hearts healed that night
From enlightenment, hope and release,
We became one with the waves-
Passing, subsiding, beneath our feet.

Like the way it feels right now
Crashing, breaking my reverie,
Everything slipping through my fingers
Grounding me back to this reality.
