lovedoll - sand dollar

Walk down the beach
The sun lights your curls
A brighter shade of blonde
A gleam in the eyes
Your smile unfurls
Is this how your face lives on?
Will i remember
The sand in our toes
The sun so bright on our skin
Or will it be the hollowed cheeks
Sleepless bags
And jaundice?

Walk down the beach
The tide comes in
Pulls you out to the ocean
Won't turn your back
Let the water inflate
What's left of your organs
And in the tide's wake
You found a sand dollar
Half-buried
"We're rich!" you said,
And i laughed, and breathed
I still breathe

I watched as they pleaded,
Tried pulling to shore
Knowing it wouldn't cease
Felt the guilt wash over me
For not helping but
Only i know where you wanted to be
Know you found your home in the sea
In the sea
In the sea
