Hugged My Memories
escapism through dreams
a way to lose this plaintive scowl
the wayward wind
carried in this ocean breeze
teases my emotions
as it wraps itself around me
like your arms once did
i can hear your voice
tarry in the zephyr of summer
as the salted spray kisses me
i can feel my heart sinking
with the same force as my feet
as i try to stand my ground
against the ocean's fury
it lashes back
with the same force
as my emotions
as i stand alone
stranded on the sands of time
counting these grains
as days gone by...
