Rogue Wave
out of nowhere
he knocked me off my feet
and pulled me under
deep into his world
i never struggled-
happy to drown
in all that surrounded me
i traded air for water
and separated from the world i knew
floating in filtered light
Rocking with the current
until much later
When he was done
and took me up again
To lay me on the sand
where I stared at the sun
and let it burn me
until I hurt everywhere
inside and out
he was my rogue wave
there and gone
as if he’d never been at all
somewhere below
on the side of a shipwreck
i etched my name
in the soft wood
with a broken shell
proof that i was there too
