Searching...

The waves lap the shore
looking, constantly looking
for something
undefinable
unknown

But they never give up
their search
Unfatigable
Sometimes pulling
in closer

Just in case it wasn't
where they thought it was

perhaps higher

Only to pull back
to look in the first place

It was here the last time I looked

Sometimes they pause
Thinking they spot it in
the sand

Only to move on

Surely it was here

Every sea searches
at least two shores

What is it they look
for?
Can I help them at
all?
