we love like the sea and the sand
she says
I love you so I built you this box
he says
The sea loves the sand so much it hates it
but just can’t stay away
she says
that makes no sense
but this box has perfect lines
you can put your shoes in it
he says
with every wave the sand is changed
but changes the path of the sea
she says
it took me hours to make this box
and i thought of you the whole time
he says the sea assaults the sand
but leaves caressing it
she says
wait who is who
which of us is the sand and which the sea
he says
both
she says
why won’t you put your shoes in the box
its perfect
He says
exactly
it’s too perfect to put my shoes in it
she says
you’re an idiot
he says
yes we are
she smiles
Wow.
This is a wonderfully humorous exchange depicting a couple who are both lovers and friends. I adore that between the lines I am brought to a place where I imagine two people who love each other completely and always; love each other for who they are -different though they may be. You can see each speaking a different love language, but still speaking love all the same. It is an image of a relationship that is lasting and not quelled. One that is based on more than erotic passionate exchanges kept alive like a flash in the pan.
This is a beautiful poem!
Really appreciate that
