Waves slammed strong and furious
afternoon sun in a curious
cover of orange glows
against ferocious wind blows
as I basked in the velvety shore
in high spirits heretofore.
My toes digging into the sand
as I listen to the rustles inland
sounds of troubled waters
downed muffled cries and whimpers
oh do not feign penitent
this tryst is dampened by cruel intent.
Smell of fave exotic tropical fruit
stench of loss, on you I cannot impute
as tears welled in my eyes
these sad hellos and goodbyes
against ebony skies and late afternoon rays
Oh, the sting and pain of parting ways !
