she sat as still as time, trying
to let the rain wash her tears
and the wind wash her memory
here on the rocks, watching
as the waves abused the shores
she welcomed the tempest
the darkness knew her well
and she longed to be reacquainted,
to finally be where she belonged
though her bones creeked with regret,
as though they could feel the right
of her intent, she grabbed her skirts and stood
without lectures and judgments
without disdain and questions
she would be lovingly welcomed
she would have her freedom
she would have her destiny
and the sea would give it to her
she didn't look back
