Is it the beginning of an end
I wonder
no words do justice
I ponder
*
the 2am walk by the beach
steps laden with follies
the sand clings to my feet
waves try to set them free
*
against the July winds
heavy with juvenile chill
my palms feel warm
where they hug my arms
*
memories wade in
yearnings etched on skin
now tears rage and sting
what an epiphany it’s been!
*
scars of a love so smug
too deep too profound
the void called heart
emptiness abound
*
is it the beginning of an end
I wonder
no words do justice
I ponder
