Disorientated I stumbled around
wondering where I was.
Slowly I began to wonder

Lack of sleep due to heat
suddenly took hold of me
when the coolness swept over me.
It was the only explanation
I could give to what happened.
A restless urge for calm
must have swept over me
and enraptured me in sleep.

where we watched seagulls play.One day you turned to meand said before summer leftyou would be going away.It is no good begging me to staybecause someone else needs me,but you’ll always be my only love.She gripped my hand tightlyas we walked alongand no more words were spoken.Until it was time to gowe would be together…
