He built his home
On the rocky shore.
Every step he takes
Outside his house
Brings painful memories
Of his beloved two sons.
With the same shirt
He has had for years
And with no shoes
He stands on the waterline.
Every day gentle ripples
Caress his scarred feet
As he waits for the gigantic wave
That took his sons
To wipe his existence
Off the land.
A drop in the ocean
Of many wrecked lives
Caused by the tsunami.
