Volition


The cool sand beneath my feet
Feel the salty breeze on my palms
The waves crash against the rocks
And everything else is calm.

Captivated I walk on
My eyes on the horizon
My footprints follow me silently
And we are all alone.

Warm water caresses my feet
I wrench my eyes back
Dazzling grains of gold
And my thoughts lose track.

But the glow of the setting sun
Beckons me ahead
I wade on into the sea
And grains are mud instead.

My feet are tired
The water is so cold
But the ocean stretches on
And the sun’s a brilliant gold…….

---------------------------------
I need to walk far
I need to walk alone
The golden sun calls me,
But this decision? This is my own.

I leave back memories,
I leave back people,
I am on my own.

The ocean still streches on,
The sun has set and the gold is gone...

:) The setting was by you, the emotions were by you, the words were by you! The only thing I did was add 3 paras. :) I should call you brilliant, why me?! :)
But honestly, it needn't be that sad an ending like I made it. Remember that the Sun will rise again tomorrow.
Come online 2nite if pssble, I have a nice idea to discuss! :D
