wading

it will take time. thousands of

ticks will sound from the second hand,

its impatient little foot dancing on our eardrums.

we will watch the sun inch above the soft treetops. with

each tick, it will grow higher; with each tick, we will

grow closer. it will take time, darling, so

wait with me.


it will be a while. hundreds of

waves will crash over our heads,

their strong swirling hands tangling our hair.

we will hear the waves sizzle as they recede. with

each wave, the sound will grow louder; with each wave, we will

grow closer. it will be a while, darling, so

wade with me.
