Tiny Ocean

The other day I went to the sea and walked along the shore

with the attempt to forget about a few things

but all the ocean did was to remind me of you.

That day the ocean gave me colors

and it gave me air

and beauty.

I walked and I couldn't help but think that those colors didn't match your eyes.

but it was beautiful

I couldn't help thinking that there was only one set of footprints.

but the tide washed them off

and I couldn't help but think that in all the pictures I took, there was no trace of you.

but there was a trace of me

then it hit me:

I was there ready to take a hit

ready to take the tide and take a leap into the ocean

I was gonna meet you there.

at the middle.

But you got lost.

Somehow my tiny ocean swallowed you.

-M

this place was so beautiful. I just wanted to stay there forever. 

and finally, i thought it was time to upload a picture of me smiling.

Monica.
