Longbeach

we were laughing on the street.The cars kept coming and quite conversations passed us 
by.The diners were all closing and the bars were just setting up.They gave us a dirty 
look but i didnt know because i was content.My thoughts were with you.And in the dusk 
and cool nauatical breeze,i breathed you in.Life.Disaster.Hope and 
hopelesness.

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
