Nightly beach
March 11, 2022
The sound of the waves crashing
As I see my life flashing
With sand on my feet
I wonder what lies beneath
The moon and stars
Don’t look that far
The warm summer air
Sinking in my skin and hair
As I walk on this beach
The one I can always reach
I lie down
The ocean can make you drown
That is where my thoughts will be
As you stand over by that palm tree
A gust of wind comes
Sounding like a hum
You walk towards me
Only telling me that it is a dream
And now I have to leave
I will be back I believe

Hi my name is Kayla. I wrote this poem about ocean city Maryland and the beach there. At the hotel I was staying at I would look out the window and down at the beach at night and I would imagine myself on the beach and this is what I imagined.
