Star Light on the Beach

Sharing Intimacy

 

I came to shore

seeking intimacy

I discovered sand and sea.

In the sky

A single star.

I studied the star and wondered

If across the sea,

Someone might be

Seeing that same star just like me.

Searching for intimacy just like me.

I sang a quiet song,

A bittersweet melody

With words like

“Are you lonely too?”

Then echoed in the waves

A bass and percussion to my song

Which joined a chorus of breeze and seabirds somewhere

In a voice as one I knew:

“Not lonely I sing for you

Across this sea I sing for you

This space between the me and you an instant

The twinkling of a star

I see the light and there you are”

I returned to bed and slept

Not alone

With you once again in dreams.
