Not So Far

Icy currents wrap around
    drifting
         broken pieces
of she
emptied into terrible
unfathomed seas
    drowning
         alone ~
yet knowing
    a curiously
warm current
comes
    whispering heartsongs
surrounding curled toes
    quivering lip
          sanguine eyes
with
humid breath
    healing
    binding
          promises
. . . . . of tended wounds
   upon trusted touch
tender
    hope roots deeply
         in your pocket
    carried close within
        on blue oceans
                   not. so. far.
