you call me out upon the waters Posted on April 22, 2020 at 01:56:09 PM by n.asa
The air was crisp and frigid this morning. It was the deep of winter. The early morning sun was peeking through barren trees as I moved cautiously into the clearing. My dark silhouette is slight; certainly nothing of menance. Salty air fills my nose as I take a deep breath. My ribcage expands and for a second I hold the breathe in. At its release I watch a deep billow of warm air swirl in front of my dished face. Further signifying the coolness of the morning.
I can smell others are here and have been here recently. Their putrid scents mix with the salty air. I know what this place is. I feel a hesitance as I take another step forward. Why am I here? The voice echoes in my head. Reverberating as it I'll answer. "To find something," I respond to myself. Yes this is me, having an inward conversation. With myself. It's only a matter of time that I will be approached.
For a moment I gaze carefully as a lone bird perches on a barren branch above. It's feathers a deep red, and it's eyes black as my coat. I long to be that bird. Free to roam, free to fly. I shake my head in inward indignation. I still don't know why I'm here.
