beach walking

I walked along the beach the other day. 
Staring out at the waves and thinking of all that had happened to me.  
My mind flowed as the waves
	- and I thought of you. 

My body quivered as I thought of the things we had shared
	- and ached for your touch. 
A seagull cried out and my heart cried out to you.  
	- Why had I drifted away from you? 
Why had I not realized that you were important in my life?
  
The surf pounded on the rocks and thoughts of you pounded in my head. 
I strolled on and drifted away with the tide, 
not wanting to think of the pain I had caused or received. 

I melted into the sunset 
	- and all was dark and quiet.
