I think of mojitos and

My girls

Sarah's smile against the pink sunset

And empty bars.

I think of green upon blue and

Fear and fascination wrapped into one

Of water and expanse and dogs everywhere

Of laughter and friendship and

Love.

I dream of this utopia where

Bears roam and my

best girls live right next door.

Where dogs go into bars and the wild

Is still the wild.

I think this dull ache in my heart

Lapses when I am there

Under big skies and

Drinking mojitos by day

Soaking by night.

And I think of the day you said,

"Let's just go,"

And we didn't.

Wondering forever if my perfect life

Could just be

My imagination.
