Broken Shells

Frigid wind whispers your name as I walk along the sand beach. Waves rush to meet me as I wish you would. Sea spray touches my lips as I taste the salt of my tears. Distant gulls call thundering roar of the water calling to me As I walk to the edge I turn to search for you. Empty and forlorn is my life. Meaning...gone. Loneliness my shadow as night is my enemy. Robbing me of sleep bringing sad moments to mind. Broken shells on the sand as your promise of love. They chip away with time. Tides bearing me along. I walk... icy water numbs my flesh enveloping my soul as I am free... copyright 2012 acb
