tidal wave

it starts with odd winds
pulling me to want? desire?
confusing me with these whims

then, nothing. was it real?

just an off day, the tide pulling back

and now it laps at my feet
on the beach of my mind
that feeling

everyone is busy
everyone is gone
off doing whatever

and i am alone
to face a wall of water
that looms ahead of me

i see it coming

time to brace
