Seaside Break


ocean
curtains

torn bed
salt scents

my eyes
rip tide

footprints
shore fixed

water
spiller

seagulls
cry, girl

she churns
the surf

Exquisite, girl ! The way you’ve woven sea into home into emotion speaks volumes of your consciousness. Churning the surf > Wow ! Footprints shore fix > wow again. Paige, you are a genius poetess. I intend for you to know it. Xx.

Such a raw and haunting piece the brevity makes each word crash like a wave, leaving its echo behind. I could feel the sea’s pull and the ache hidden in its tides. Thank you for sharing this with us.

Such a vivid snapshot of the sea! I love how the imagery flows like the waves—reminds me to embrace life’s movement and find beauty even in chaos.
