Poetry: A day at the beach

by Jenilee Dunson

Created on: April 03, 2009

The Ocean

Endless, like my love, like the passing days without you by my side.

The Sand

Burning, against my skin, like my desire to hold you now

The Sun

Cruel, Unrelenting, but yet it is this very sun

The sun that gives us warmth, light

And above all, hope.

I throw a stone across the blue sea, cursing softly.

I sigh at lovers holding hands as they stroll along the beach.

I turn to leave now, my back turned to the salty wind

It was here that we met, shared so much...

And here now where I will say goodbye to you.

Casting away my love like a stone

Sinking to the bottom of the sea.
