Loving Like a Wave Crashing

The final part of this poetry series, hope you guys enjoy.

Like a wave crashing

Sweeps you off your feet

You can see it coming,

Building

It starts off small, slow

Playful

Spinning in circles

Kicking the air

Like the waves are your dance partner

As time goes on

The waves can get bigger

And you don’t realize how strong it is

Until it hits you

There can be beauty in drowning

Not having control

Letting the love take you where it wants

Not obsession

Just surrender

But once it hits you,

It fades away

Back to the small, slow waves that tickle your feet

Like a wave crashing

It ebbs and flows

Comes and goes

But never truly leaves

Your head may not always be under water

But you’ll always feel the slow waves under your feet

Reminding you of its presence.
