I look out over the wide open expanse,
as the soft roar of the surf rushes up onto the shore,
lapping the water and trickling back
Here is me,
Cloudless skies, that give me tranquility and peace that encapsulates my mind.
The smell of natural salt that stays with me
and the delicate spray that dances quickly across my skin
Here is me.
The playful waves ,that lap around my feet with energy that taunts, teases and calls to the child in me.
I am a child again ,just for a glimpse in to some memories, of a time where I felt safe and
Here is me.
I wriggle my toes in the warm sand,
I leave my footprints but it takes just one wave, and they have gone
Washing away the proof and the indentation that I was even there,
Here is me.
This is me and where I always feel a state of calm and peace,
to spend the rest of my days
away from the life that consumes me,
I will be here, eventually , looking out over that wide open expanse.
As here is me, and my life to be.
