Fingering the shadows
turned to face me head on
my mind goes soft
like the sand between my feet.

As if in a dream
fast forwarding and unable to move
enveloped in the fog
with each wave rushing over,
above and beyond.

There is so much I want to say
before the tide washes out and reality sets in
double parked so that I can get to you quickly
peeking through the shades
unlocking the door.

I glow in the aftermath of my dreams
holding tight to the blanket
forever keeping me warm
sleepy eyed, wrapped around my pillow
held within a quiet emptiness
that never leaves me lonely.

The comfort I lack replaced by your touch
keeping me close
moving the tides
washing in and back out.

I remember you clearly
in every one of my dreams
as mismatched as we are
I would never replace them
or the passion I relish
for it is there where my love is content
bathing in the blue of cool water~

I love where your writing is taking you in this piece. It is just lovely!!

Enjoy life, this is NOT a dress rehearsal.

I love the beach...and love the use of "tides washing out". This was a smooth read, and leaves me with a feeling of calm.
