SUN RAYS KISSING MY SKIN 

(INSTEAD OF YOU)

by Tuese Ahkiong

Before me 
an endless ocean 
and a sky of blue
Sun rays kissing my skin 
Instead of you. 
Waves roaring, 
kiddies laughing, 
birdies singing 
and thoughts dreaming...
That this sea of love would be kind
And find
A gal 
to drown 
deep down
inside
of me
But will it ever be?
A wish come alive?
An open door 
to wake me 
from this sandy floor?
Still waiting 
the day 
she would wash upon my shore...
sigh.
