At the top
Bury me in the sand
Of my favorite beach
Let the ocean breeze
Carry me to a place
Where I feel at peace
I don't know
The exact point
Where things went South
But it was not my intention
To hurt you
I love you
I wish you could see that
One day
We will meet again
And we will be happy
And there will be no end
My dad asked me
To come home
But I never did
Maybe I should have
Home never felt like home
I always looked outside
I always had the hope
That something was out there
Just for me
Something that would feel right
Maybe it was
All bad luck
How much bad luck
Can one have?
Maybe it was
God's plan
But what was
It all for?
How much long
Do I have to last?

The first verse really grabbed my attention: sorrow seeking solace in nature. And then, in the sparsest of words, the poem touches on sadness, happiness, luck, family, spirituality, life....it packs alot of thought and emotion. Beautiful!
