Alone on the Beach

The waves were crashing on the shore

I, standing there, wanted to know more

I wanted to know what was on my mind

But I had to dig deep to find . .

I stood there, my eyes closed

Mourning and full of remorse

My pupils were filled with tears

And the sun was equally fierce . .

And then, to my utter surprise

I was in the midst of a mist

My mind racing, full of lists

Thinking of what to do next . .

The sun was annoyingly penetrating

I got up with a startled feeling

I was looking into the brightness

With a sudden jolt of sadness . .
