Dig a grave in the sand
Watch the grains fly
Place my body in the pit and cover me up
I am heavy
Watch the sunset
Look at me
Look how I’m going back to sea
My mother
My love
Awaken me when I am soaked through
When the sand is in my hair, caked under my eyes, touching my cracked lips
And then only when the saltwater reaches my mouth walk away
Feel my body drift
Put me to rest
Watch me sink
