When Oceans Fall
When oceans fall, skies marry blue
Lighter comes the night cascading
Sleeping with the waterfalls that land
Heavy on the backs of continents
A crash is heard on midnight’s shallows
Seas sleep on rocks that hold their ground
While flowing into holes, oceans lift their heads
Go down, go with them underground as soundless
There is no need to breath when there are waves
Cradled in the sky with clouds born waiting
Oceans rise and fall within themselves
And when they crash the world starts laughing
