distance

between what I feel and this hard reality
struggling to stay afloat and alive
above the rushing waves
it all washes over me again and again
some moments I am able to see the horizon
and others
only the water surrounding me

as I slowly unravel the story and find my own words
knocked down by knowing that her love does not transcend
that she is more than gone
I scramble to catch up  to breathe   to scoop up these pieces all around me
into a pile that makes sense   that can hold my weight
