Sliver of Solitude

what is it
to say, i love you

but all that i can do

the ocean

poised to tear away
this sliver of our solitude

will it be
that we become
an isle of silence sheltered

or will this moor
be swallowed
by the violent shores
aweigh

in truth
a gentle peace persists

knowing that the stars preside
over our every incarnation

and with you
along my side
