flotsam and jetsam drifting together in the open sea bonded by an unseen force creeping with the tidal pulls drawing us near the shore, you cling secure to your rock. the yearning sea pulls me back out to the expanse of loneliness floating helpless I ache to find more discarded members hoping the moon will draw me in to my waiting rock. I long for the days when the sea allows me to drift past you, hoping you don't lose the grip and get sucked back to the empty, murky waters, drifting alone with me again among the flotsam and jetsam.
Reason for writing:
the unbreakable bond shared between best friends, even when they've found their soulmate and I haven't yet.
