This One Place

This one place I want to go there once more. Only me and my body. Letting the cold breeze to watch them, my warm tears, becoming the fallen stars dancing together with the shimmering waves. I'm not waiting for someone to take me there. How many steps will it take to reach there, this one place? I want to go and stand there. I want to see my lonely footprints that quietly follow me behind. Leaving as a trace of memories on the coarse sand just to be stolen away by the mischievous waves. Looking up and looking down blueness everywhere. A blueness to grasp the faded blue running wild in my veins. Don't want to build a sand castle. To build a home for myself in me. Even the fierce sun sets behind this one place for a long nap till the night breaks apart. I know I will fall again. if the mighty waves hit on me But I'm not afraid even. I can stand up again from this fall with a smile. A pleasurable fall. Like everything ends there no more road can be seen ahead, The tides crash all of it down. Don't have to think which way to travel, just walk along with the waves. Closing both eyes, listening to their lullabies, I will be there. In this one place.
