Once

Once
 A Golden shell 
travelled lifetimes to find you at the shore
Thrown back
to thwart the idea of an enchaining desire
 just to prove your selfsame place 
same self placed
still in fluidity 
alone

How do you think that makes me feel?
My own purpose
each day moulded by this one endeavor
to find your dipped hand?

The soul is not a plaything
though
two souls at play are blended bliss

The heart is not a pink rubber ball
though
it bounces back when it falls
out of love

And what we have is not 
to be taken lightly
though
it has left me weightless

and what you throw back into the sea
will not show up again

that is for certain.
