Small

        Small is a word that

I am

            inside

                     at night

in crowds            in conversation
in waves that overwhelm
in tides                that sweep and fade

     where mountains rise
    above the shore

where earth succumbs
beneath the throws of
all the heartache of The Sea

      then

           carries out to

              Peace
                                  and
                                                       Rest


what's left of all


                         that's
              

                                                                     me.
