In the sand.

dianejean57 1957 (Swansea, MA)



In the sand.

I remember your name from a decade ago. I wrote it in the sand just a month ago. But I still love you so much. The tide came in and washed it away. But it takes me back to a place where we would both stay. But I'll still love you. If you would take me by the hand, together we can write it again in the sand. Then you will understand that I won't let the tide take this one away. Because you will always be in my heart, and no one can take that away, and I won't let them anyway.
