That Fine Sunset

As the Sun dived down
I sat there all on my own
 
Feet touching the wet sand beneath,
Locking fingers with the sea...
I looked at what was far ahead,
I knew it was all for me.
 
Then a glimpse of this, and a glimpse of that
Memories returned... without any rest.
Scribbling names for moments, on the sand
My thoughts and I went hand in hand.
 
And amidst those tangled waves of thoughts,
I caught a wave....
That lingered gingerly
 
A wave...
That was so full of glee
 
A wave....
As gentle as the breeze could be
 
A wave....
That came back just to embrace me,
washed every trace of agony...
 
 
And that very wave swirled deep into my heart,
Where I found together...
You and me!
