The last time I walked out to you beyond the receding shore,
The sand dissolved: fell away beneath my feet,
The waves overtopped my bobbing head,
My arms finally raised : a flailing reverse swan dive…
And so now once more I am over drowned.
I can only wait for you to be given up by loves lost sea,
Perhaps you’ll be washed back to me,
Because I can’t swim towards you anymore.
