A cool wind touching crevices of your face, escaping hot air and dodging quickly as to not be caught by sun. Your eyes gleaming deeper than ocean waters disguising life below them as thick, uninhabited.   White birds sink deep into sunsets, seen from different windows, all whispering the same words.. look at me and feel beauty I can picture your hands, cleaned, but stain imprinted placed softly on my skin, alone, with waves crashing. Time is no constant. There's only light and it's absence. Your smile never fades away. No envelopes with red writing. I can hardly feel the fabric worn loosely on my skin. There's scattered sand upon it, on sun-soaked salty bodies. We're happily pacing a shore of endless shells laughing about stories of work and other chores. I want no one other than your green eyes, blinding to take me there, love me bare, a shore with just our footsteps.
