I stand waiting,
My eyes gazing across the horizon,
The wind blowing my hair in the direction that you disappeared.
My heart aches,
The feelings within it rush up and down,
Like the sea I am watching.
Now I can fathom
My dog’s excitement
When I came home every day.
Imagine, if you will,
You are my dog,
Sitting in a room
With no sounds
But the rumble of passing cars outside.
