The Beach (Part 1)

Written in 2004, when I was 18. The language is a little juvenile and the symmetry jerky, but I am still proud of some of the imagery.


We are here,
Our little corner of paradise,
Just You and I.
We can see,
The sun slowly sinking. Casting shades
Of gentle warmth.
We can feel,
The wind pushing from all directions,
Against our embrace.
We both know,
This moment of strength and serenity,
Will too soon pass.
We are one,
Hands locked, rosé cheeks softly touching,
Our cold lips soften.
We are here.
Together. This moment is all ours.
Just You and I.
