Watch

We stand on the cliffs,
eyes fixed where sky meets sea,
the light folding into itself
like a promise not yet spoken.
Something is coming,
we don’t know what,
only that it matters.
A ship, a word,
a presence too vast to name.
So we keep watch,
not in stillness,
but in quiet faith.

The sun lowers,
and still, we move,
chopping wood, folding linens,
living inside the waiting.
Not idle,
just ready.
Some days it feels like hope,
others like ache,
but always,
we glance toward the horizon
as if we’ll know it
when it arrives.
