Last Train To Clarksville

ocean blue
eyes light up 
wisp cool breeze
palm tree
free , nothing 
matters
to you none 
of the likes of 
these
prominent girl
misunderstood
brooding
over her scar 
and broken heart
in a world alone
constantly waiting
listening 
wanting the end 
to be near
one more scar
for this paradise
salty sea stings 
red ripples the blue
deafening scream 
awakes the monkey's 
as they sing "last train to clarksville"
