quiet shore

waves crash upon

this empty beach

i am waiting for my lover

on the shore;

he is late today.

every thought crosses my mind

as i wait for him;

what if he is sick?

what if he is hurt?

what if he is dead...?

i shake my head; get rid of the thoughts.

he is strong. i have faith.

the stars are beautiful and bright above me.

constellations he told me the names of

shine bright in patterns all around.

the moon is among them;

it reflects into the sea

i wonder if he can see it from the depths?
