As the ocean waves crashes on the surface of the sand beneath my feet I begin to wonder,
Would I be here if it wasn’t for her?
Years ago,
Her and I sat here on top of the lifeguard tower.
The moon shining above reflecting itself in the blue midnight ocean water,
Hand in hand,
Her laughter fills the air,
I hold her extra tight as the ocean breeze brushes against her and I.
Until she begins slipping,
And it’s no longer her and I here sitting amongst the ocean waves,
And it’s just me.
