I feel as if I’ve left a million footprints

on the beach of your soul

I’ve walked the long, meandering path

of the beautiful things that you’ve seen

felt

heard

I’ve seen the docks where the ships that hold your memories are docked

from small sail boats that hold day to day memories

to yachts that contain precious childhood memories

to ships that litter the ocean floor with the bad

I’ve walked on your rocky shores

cut my feet on your sadness and anger

found small beaches littered with rock shaped rocks

found small beaches littered with driftwood from the great trees of your mind

found small beaches and carved my name in the sand

and sat and wait for the tide to wash it away

but as I sit, I realize,

the sunsets&sunrises remain as pure

and beautiful

as love itself
