Walking along the beach
staring out over the waves.
The sun slowly setting
as a gentle breeze blows
salt onto our lips.
I feel your arms tighten
pulling me against you,
as my foot catches on something.
I fall down landing on the soft sand
looking back I notice a bottle
I pick it up and go to place it in my bag
When I notice a piece of paper inside.
Curiousity getting the better of me
I just had to open it
tapping it against the sand
Until it falls out .
Gently I uncurl it
as I turn to show you,
but you are no longer there
I guess this is your final message
“Baby please know, I love you
Now, always and forever “
