Drinking down the chances I never took.

We laid there with fingers crossed and got lost in the acute angles that our bodies formed while stars winked and cross multiplied what was there all along. We were taken in and consumed by the energy from the ground beneath us and We became sea dwellers for just one night. We were in the water flipping and turning in the waves. Salt water seeped into our eyes and we felt no pain... I always knew that's where we belonged. We were the crashing waves on the shore. Tide in and Tide out. We were the waves. We were a double helix pair constantly intertwining our bodies together. Eventually our lungs broke, and we returned to the night sky. I turned my head and you were gone and my fingers were uncrossed but everything seemed to be...ok. I drink down all I can find now. I lose myself sometimes but I'm all right. I've set out on a voyage for gold and all the while I drink. I drink for you, I drink for me, I drink down all the chances I never took.
