A Body That Holds

Weightless, I float on
The ocean—
A great salty body
That holds
Me, her
Fluid arms
Cradle whatever
Substance
 
I am—
Salty, fluid,
You are 
 
Just like the ocean,
A magnificent body,
Yes, it crashes. 
And it breaks.
 
Oh, but it holds 
 
The most precious soul,
And I don’t ever want
To leave this place
