blue whale

January 27, 2014

Sometimes I have dreams
of riding alongside a blue whale
and breathing under water
holding it for support

I am close enough
that I can see him
close enough that I can see his eye
his little eye that is just as big as me

I fell in the water one day
after being lost away at sea
for the past couple years
and there the blue whale was
accompanying me
like a friend I should have known forever
but had only just met

The blue whale moaned
I took that to mean
Lets explore the sea and not worry about tomorrow

Sounds good to me I said in my low weak voice

And after he breathed and the force of water made me stumble
I held my breath and descended into the journey

It
Alongside
Me
