sunset beach

if you remember me speaking about this i love you, and here it is! it took me months to write this, i couldn’t tell you why it just DID 😭 SAD TIMES

anyway, sometimes i get a bit sad and worried because i don’t post all of my writing but i feel like you need to see the full picture to understand it. then i remember i don’t really owe anyone anything? that sounded a bit harsh; i just mean that maybe i like having a few things close to my chest, locked on a note on my phone. maybe everyone doesn’t have to see every part of me.

song: pleaser - wallows


we grieve the loss of the sun;

vision filled with the emptiness.

a blood orange half circle dipping

below a horizon line of

golden and blue


as the sun leaves us,

yet again,

fear clouds our souls ,

as the heart of our existence

disappears into

thick blue murky depths ;

we grope in the dark for each other

and for relief


two people sit on an empty

train carriage

and avoid

eye


contact

and avoid

conversation


reality, we must face reality


in the night, as the sun departs,

the stars drag our secrets out,

display them in the inked sky


if you stare hard enough, listen long enough,

you would know the stranger on the train liked your shoes


the stranger liked the sand on your shoes too


i’ve been walking on the beach a lot,

watching the end of each day,

wondering how many times things can end and

start again.


i’ve been thinking about why every heart,

every beating and bleeding moment within me

is just perfect.


and i like the sand on my shoes,

i like the wet discomfort of when i get

it inside my shoes,

i like the gritty texture and

the little scratches it leaves behind.


i like the sand,

and i love the ocean,

and i trust them to take the sun every night

and return Her to me the next morning. /
