I stand alone watching the ocean gently kiss the shore..
Surrounded by the sea I dream of my future, of a life that may never be…
The ocean speaks, a voice of love and gentleness in my ear. The warm wind adds its whispers and a feeling of peace enters my heart…
Feeling as though my life has been spent trying to get over the next swell, swimming against the tides, this new feeling scares me….
I feel as if there is something just out of reach, something that causes me to flow with the tides and chance being crushed by the rocky shore…
Could it be worth it I wonder, could I be so wrong…
I open my heart, open my arms, and let the ocean carry me along….

Darlene – this is so innocent and pure! And the way you’ve managed to capture the experience with all the tenderness and wonderment about the big future and the unknown – like you’re embarking ona voyage – a voyage of your heart and soul.
First love is amazing – and the crazy thing is that you can think you’ve experienced it when you were young…and then one day..(perhaps decades later)…whoosh – another encounter…and this time it’s really love…..so it can happen any time!
The way you re-live and write it here…it’s such a beautiful lovely piece of work!
I really really like this!
