August.

What is the power that holds entire oceans
firmly within their borders, never breaking
character to burst their boundaries,
but once in a blue moon?

Tell me, for I must know
the source of this majestic puissance,
lest I open the floodgates of my thoughts
towards you, as daylight beckons within:

For my cup—filled to the brim with waves
of coral reef emoji—has begun to spill.
Flowing like rivers of living water,
it spills, spilleth, and keeps on running over.
