Poetry: War

The Water Remembers

I was sure you had forgotten
That night on the shore, that
Drunken night when you said
Listen...the water is
Whispering memories.
Stunned into silence, I waited
And heard tales of lust,
Tasted salt from tears shed
For the dead a thousand years ago.
I was sure you had forgotten
Until the night we went to war,
The night you called to say
Go to the beach,
Wait for my voice.
