While the Waves Crashed

Christopher Hivner

I ran around her
to get to you
while the waves
rolled the world along
on the Milky Way Sea.

Did you find
all that you needed
when you searched inside?
Or should I pull my ribs apart
one more time?

Five times
you wrecked me,
five times ten
you let me down,
math is not my friend.

I ran around myself
to get to you
while the waves crashed ashore
with certainty
and I looked for lost rings in the sand.
