The Glass Sea

The tide stroked at my toes. It reminded me how… gentle Your touch used to be. A gilded sun enveloped the glass sea, Glistening; the way your Eyes lit a darkened room. Waves,              Crashed. Semi-translucent images Come and go on a waning tide Ebbing as only life itself can To remind me that tomorrow There will be no kiss…
