a puzzle
mystery
three letters
& what is that Y?
inbetween
something you have that i need
to X mark the spot
buried treasure under feet
took years to meet
and come to this place
of peace
standing on the beach
in the stretching shadows of the pier
ships screaming in
on the wind
storms shudder the sound
don't cover your ears
stand tall and feel the pound
of the waves on your face
closer and closer
with each day
you, in the sand where the sun gives
me, in the pebbly take-away
where the sun will drag all daylight and me with it
playing house
guns
cowboys and indians
princesses and dragons
shadows and smoke
fire burning for what we already knew
way back when
we'd look up at that same
deep blue above
with no name
for us
all pulled out
in awe
