Collateral Damage

I know it’s a lot to ask, 
for you to envelop me,
to want to brave the task

of swallowing the sea. 


It’s all or nothing, fast or go.

Explore my shallows,

but watch my undertow.


The crashing waves silence the cries,

are you in a watery grave,

or did you make it out alive? 


I promise to be gentle

or as much as I can be,

all casualties are accidental 

this is my only guarantee.
