Michiru

In every swell of the sea, you are there.
In every rise, every fall,
In every surge of salty water against a ragged shoreline,
Your liquid grace and cool disposition are there.
Soundless and agile,
Undulating,
With your warm and cold patches,
Your currents flowing so evenly to one destination.
And at night,
When tart breezes ripple your surface,
I can see the moon reflecting off of your glassy being,
Like a mirror.
And she stays there, in your arms, until the sun washes her away again
