at night I lie in bed alone and imagine myself transported back over time and miles to a night at the beach so hot that sheets stuck to our sweat-slick skin and we could bear it only so long. We went out into the night and curled up together in your mother's candy-striped hammock and you rocked us, in time with the tide. I fell asleep breathing the sweet sting of the sea and the warm thrill of you, safe as a babe swaddled in the arms of love. |
