Call on You

With my soft breath in the window
I can trace the letters of
Our names

The cold air flows through the cracks
Of the panes

It touches my skin
And I remember to
Always call on you
In the rain

Calling to you now
Just a ghost
I wanted to reach for you
To pull you back to shore

I wanted to hold you in my arms
I wanted to go
Into the storm
But I wanted life more

Who could ever need me
More than you did that day
Who could ever trust me
To keep you safe

Breaking waves they claimed you
My feet in the sand
It's not because I didn't love you
I just couldn't swim
