The Blueprint of an Unspoken Shoreline
In the city, our connection was a series of high-rise silences—structural, imposing, and built with much too much reinforced concrete. We lived in parallel corridors, two separate blueprints never meant to intersect beyond the shared ventilation of casual glances in crowded elevators.
But here, where the ocean acts as an infinite floor plan, the boundaries are eroding. The salt spray hits my skin like a demolition crew tearing down the heavy facades I built around my heart. There is no cantilevered ego here, no brutalist defense to maintain against your presence. Just the raw, uncurated expansion of the tide.
As the waves crash against me, they act as a soft renovation, smoothing out the jagged edges left by urban friction. I find myself looking for you in the horizon line—that single, perfect intersection where the sky meets the sea. Even without your physical weight beside me, our distance feels less like an empty void and more like a carefully designed atrium: open, breathing, and waiting to be filled with the warmth of a shared light.
