Blue Light Over the Horizon

For Sarina

Swirls of blue meander across the Pacific

Kissing the horizon at the South China Sea

Where I await

A wave dances slowly towards the shore

So slowly as if time stood still

And whispers of your name as it arrives at shore oh so gently

And when it arrives, it gently caresses my face

As though it’s travelled from the breath you breathe

And it crystallises as speckles of salt just below my eyelashes

And I close my eyes

And I feel a tear drop

And I taste you

Like how I imagine you

And I open my eyes

And see a blue light over the horizon

And I have arrived

Home
