🪷Our salt-tear waters mingle
reflections from the aches of caring, codependency, & boundaries
People I love
have seas of pain
that make me sorrow and shiver.
I want to help
and harbor them,
but I've got my own wild river,
and sinking me
would help no one--
so on my course I stay,
but our salt-tear
waters mingle
as we each wend our way.
In the notebook
This has a great rhythm to it, almost a rocking cadence that makes me think of waves and boats being tossed about. And of course the words are so true!
"...I want to help and harbor them, but I've got my own wild river..."
Oof. That hits. So good, Anna.
