Here I sit, collecting sunsets
while you are away from me.
I dissolve my silly regrets
in steaming mugs of tea.
I’d miss you more, I think
if it weren’t for the playful sea.
The waves tease me with a wink –
I’m easily distracted, you see.
The weather has been great,
these days I’m almost happy.
So I enjoy myself while I wait
for you to come back to me.

So I enjoy myself while I wait
