My story is as vast as the oceans

_{Set in the shorefront in Cape Town February 2022}

I refuse to long for a love the universe never promised me
To cram all my glory into a shell
To accommodate a wishful thought

That you exist at the meeting of my thighs

That is not my story.
You are not my story.
My story is as vast as the oceans

I am an ocean
I am calm when unprovoked
A storm when upset

Home to aquatic creatures
A blue kingdom
I sink Titanic's
And shift tectonic plates

I give life
And I take life
In sync with God
A reflection of yourself
No wonder you fear me …
