memories

 my thoughts of you were like waves

lapping gently on some foreign shore

where they may have touched before

but, as the sun washed over me,

i lost my memory of when.

 

i saw a distant sailboat and wondered

where was it going? were you on it?

there were no clouds that day,

only the song of birds and fishing men

and the pounding of my heart.
