Somewhere to be

Somewhere to be

A 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.
