I walked across the sandy beach,
The tropical birds creating a loud screech.
The soft silky sand making it's way through my toes,
And a small dense of trees, in a bunch, not a row.
I inhale the dry, salty air,
The sweet aroma of the excotic fruits, too delicious to bare.
The sky, deep and blue,
The sun shining a ray onto the ocean.
The waves crashing onto the sand,
Washing over my ankles.
The star shaped leaves,
On the tall palm trees.
I look across the glorious island,
Amazed by the magnificent sight.

I can't sleep,
I can hear something.
Someone's here,
I'm not alone.
It's getting closer,
I can hear footsteps in the hall.
Someone's here,
I'm not alone.
One voice,
Two people.
Someone's here,
I'm not alone.
The door handle turning,
The door slowly opening.
Someone's there!
I'm not alone!
I say "Hello?"
They run away.
The someone is gone,
I am alone.

I walk down the street,
Like I am in one of those adverts,
I swish my hair, and skip to the beat,
Of the old man's song.
It is quite a nice one,
A lovely rhythm,
A shame the song is almost done,
I think I will give him some money.

*Then I will nip to the shop,
The botuique,
Then I will stop at the market,
And buy some groceries.

My dog Luna, she was sweet,
She liked to lick people's feet!!
She ran away once,
But not very far.
I loved my dog Luna.
I stroked her fur,
That kept me warm in the winter.
She had a black snout,
No doubt about that,
As black as the midnight sky.
Her coat was a shade of brown,
The colour of a sandy beach.
I don't have my dog anymore,
Because we moved into a temperary flat.
We gave her to a man down the street,
I miss her,
I miss her,
I miss her very much.
And I hope we can get her back.

Live,
A full happy life.
Be,
Who you wanna be.
Believe,
You can do it.
Love,
The one who is right for you.
Light,
The path you are going to take.

At the foot of the stair,
Breathing in the fresh air.
Walking home,
Text my mum on my phone.
Unlock the door,
Step onto the creaking floor.
Walk to my room,
Knocking over the broom.
Lay on my bed,
Resting my painful head.
Fall asleep,
Don't make a peep.
Wake up,
I am back to being young.

She stood there, staring at me.
Her eyes like gleaming diamonds.
It started to hurt, the pain thrashed through my veins.
I fell to the floor, it was hard to breath.
I screamed at her, telling her to stop.
She ignored me and carried on.

The pain started to fade and I looked up,
To see her dress, but no her, lying in a heap on the floor.
The pain no longer hurt, just a slight tingle.
I have never told anyone about that day.
