In the sand, We met each other, And names exchanged between friends Turned into faces with personalities, Characteristics, and ambitions. In the sand, We played together, Building homes out of sand, Pouring our heart and soul Into the project, And each other. In the sand, We walked together, Side by side, hand in hand. Bright sunsets become a backdrop to Meaningful talks, important words, And shared smiles. In the sand, We partied together, The firepit blazing under the stars, Music blaring and friends dancing, Their forms basking in the fire’s glow. In the sand, We argued, And harsh words were hurled, Not unlike the terrible stinging sensation Sand creates when trapped in your eye. In the sand, We parted ways, Under the same sunset backdrop, And I watched your footprints Fade away. In the sand, I lay there lonely, Babies crying and mothers yelling All around me, with me trying to Fathom the reasons why you left me. In the sand, Like a loyal leatherback sea turtle, We came back to our beach, and With tears in your eyes and Sand in your hair, you apologized. In the sand, You apologized for your selfishness, The way you jumped to conclusions, And you confessed that you had never, Ever forgotten me and our beach. A year later, in the sand, You went down on one knee, And after saying yes, I thanked God above That I had fallen in love with you In the sand.

In the Sand
In the sand, We met each other, And names exchanged between friends Turned into faces with personalities, Characteristics, and ambitions. In the sand, We played together, Building homes out of sand, Pouring our heart and soul Into the project, And each other. In the sand, We walked together, Side by side, hand in hand. Bright sunsets become a backdrop to Meaningful talks, important words, And shared smiles. In the sand, We partied together, The firepit blazing under the stars, Music blaring and friends dancing, Their forms basking in the fire’s glow. In the sand, We argued, And harsh words were hurled, Not unlike the terrible stinging sensation Sand creates when trapped in your eye. In the sand, We parted ways, Under the same sunset backdrop, And I watched your footprints Fade away. In the sand, I lay there lonely, Babies crying and mothers yelling All around me, with me trying to Fathom the reasons why you left me. In the sand, Like a loyal leatherback sea turtle, We came back to our beach, and With tears in your eyes and Sand in your hair, you apologized. In the sand, You apologized for your selfishness, The way you jumped to conclusions, And you confessed that you had never, Ever forgotten me and our beach. A year later, in the sand, You went down on one knee, And after saying yes, I thanked God above That I had fallen in love with you In the sand.
