A million facets Gleam back into my eyes The sun is setting now And the waves have slowed We will soon be in the darkness Of the sweet full moon And I think of the day Spent wandering the Silver sands And the sea without Any memories I have been happy All the way to my core Every moment with The sweet winds in my face And I know that As long as these memories Can last in my mind I will feel the warm sun Shining on my shoulders And keeping me safe From the world I left behind And the waves will keep Me calm til the night Then I watch the moon Float across the waters And feel content For once in my life.
Reason for writing:
The thing with this poem is the fact that I was all alone, i had been rejected one too many times, and then spring break came along and I went to the beach and seeing the ocean just made everything go away. Only that I knew of James was my memory from home. (if that makes sense, tell me if it does.)
