Somewhere to beA Poem by Cheryl
I walk up the balmy beach
On a warm summer evening I watch the sky kiss the sea And turns a pretty blush. I remember how you'd steal kisses Just to hear me giggle The memories never fade No matter how much I try. You're simply here to be And you're who I always see. The waves crash long and loud The shore stretches out for miles The sea doesn't kiss my feet The way the sky kissed her. No. It lashes at my feet Like as if I was the one that walked away Did I walk away too fast or too slow? Or did I just get stuck in between? Do I have anywhere to be? Do I have anyone to see? I keep walking along the shore I run alongside the wind I try desperately to leave footprints I turn around to count how many But the sea is very unforgiving It has washed away all that I had been I look to the sky for help But he stayed silent, cold and bleak. I have no where to be. I have no one to see. I keep walking through the night Chasing the fading moonlight I reach out, hoping to catch it’s light But the stars are distant, lost from view The wind whispers, but never speaks Just a sigh echoing through my mind I have no path to follow. I have no heart to borrow. But I know I have somewhere to be And that I have someone to see. © 2024 Cheryl |
