That Blue

"It's Blue!"

"What's blue?"

"The ocean. I didn't know it was actually That Blue."

That Blue.

That Blue that makes it look like you can stick your big Bubble-Tea sized straw into and drink in the Vanilla Blue Slush Puppie flavor that it looks like it holds.

Not bluesy-blue but calmy-blue.

That Blue that makes you wonder just how far you'd have to swim to touch a finger to the bottom.

That Beautiful Blue.

Without even feeling the cool of your water, you

inhabit my very breath

saturating it the way the salt saturates your

Beautiful Blue-ness

giving air salty blue breathy texture

I forget I'm a body of mostly water

until I'm in your body of water

not realizing how much I've been holding onto

until you lap up against my stresses and they let go

I forget how loud it is out here

until I dive under and let your silent peace still my mind

Not wanting to ever leave

cuz it's the most sane I've felt in a long time

They can think I fight for nothing

But That Blue

reminds me of You

and that I do

stand for everything that is good
