Airy

A Poem by Aekmy

 I’ve always imagined a sea horse with glasses

And

Fresh cut grass reminds me of long lost summers 

ago.

When I walk past empty coffee shops I imagine them full of life.

With the curtains open, blinds up, people bustle in

And

Out while a short, shy waitress takes many orders

And

Receives many tips for her kindness.

Sun hats and flip flops

Ice cream and hot days

Laughter and hot days

Hugs and kisses

I wish upon the highest start

And

Pray that wherever you are you will find me

And

Take me away

Far

Far

away.

I love the first line because its so unexpected and random but at the same time it doesnt feel like it was put there to surprise you, its there because you really do imagine that and because it was meant to be there and i dont know if this is making any sence to you.
I also really love how at first the poem is all carefree and cheery (i imagined a grl with pigtails and freckles skipping along the sidewalk) and then by the 4th line its like the girl has grown a little bit and sees more then just the happy go lucky side of the world and then by the 11th line it feels like the girl has grown older and is even more aware of the reality of life and she remembering the happy times of past summers and then she remembers a specific person that is dead and she has a sudden longing for him and she wants him to take her "Far, Far, away." because shes sick of only remembering happy times and yeah.
if im reading way to deep into the poem and got it completely wrong, i feel like a idiot, i just wanted to say that it was really a fantastic write.

"Pray that wherever you are you will find me

'No Light' was my favourite poem of yours until I read this, a fantastic exploration of dreams, memory and imagination, humour, nostalgia and longing... To say something profound in a simple way is a hard thing to do, well done!
