The Beach



The Beach



Standing on the hill, my eyes see the shimmering turquoise waters flowing onshore
The sun in my eyes, I cannot feel the pain no more
I tried to get away from the pain and sorrow by thinking only of tomorrow
But I tried too hard and now I failed as I see my ship has already sailed

A hot headed fight causes us to part our ways
We didn’t love each other enough to endure the strays
Slowly hurting each other, under the sun with too much fun day or night
All it ever did for us it to cause another fight

The water so cool, the sand a scorching furnace under my feet
I tried to walk the sands gently as I watch the rushing waters hit the low lying beach
My eyes with tears, my love for so many years, is gone like the golden sand in its watery home
The sand of the beach, the blazing sun is slowly cooking my brain as I realize she is gone

A hot headed argument, something not worth the fight
Caused us to part forever, as I wandered alone through the night
I found this beach where the sand welcomed the gently rushing sea
Realizing over and over, what my anger has taken away from me

Surrounded by diamond shaped rocks, made of lava and stone
I realize that I can no longer live and survive on my own
Watching the glimmering turquoise sea, gently and calmly caress the sand
I miss walking with her hand in hand over the glass smoothened sand

The sea, with every stroke of every wave it brought to shore
My brain is numb, my feet as cold as the water rushing ashore
The sand has turned marble white in my mind, making me feel the Artic cold
No longer warm or scorching hot like before
My heart is broken as I can still hear the slamming door

As I walk into the gentle surf I see a distant island in the horizon
Making me want to walk the waters and follow that current aflow
The wind in my hair, my ears hear the waves pounding and my eyes are tearing
I stand here, gazing into the waters, thinking my end is nearing

The water so cold, I can feel the numbness under my feet
The beach is no longer a place where I want to walk or sleep
The wind is ruining my moment here in the scorching sun
A hurricane blowing, a dark storm growing and having no place to run

The violent ocean, no longer friendly or gently licking the shore
I can’t get my head straight, I continuously keep getting wet
From walking into the deep blue waters about a hundred meters off shore
I turn away from the beach and walked into the abyss of the blue sea until I cannot walk anymore
