damn well contented

i went for a walk
down the beach.

my own thoughts
jangling between my ears-

the only sound louder than
the perfect static

of the waves inhaling and
exhaling against the shore-

line.  like marbles in a mason
jar, my thoughts clatter around

looking for a way out.
a few leak out here and

there. spilling to the chilled
sand- my toes are cold-

they catch shards of the night's
moonlight and fling it

down the dunes. it gets
caught in your hair and

your naked silhouette stuns me-
simple, smiling, sitting

facing the sea, and i can
feel that you are waiting for me.

you won't be waiting
any longer
