Seeking Salvation with the Setting Sun




Walking by the beach,
The wet sands had a lot to teach...
Holding hands walking by your side,
Thought I would cross all the tides.
I made a castle in the wet sand,
Knowing that the waves will not let it stand.
Collecting the pebbles scattered on the beach,
My dreams lay shattered beyond my reach.
Imagining the sea devoid its blue hue,
That's how my life would be without you.
But long ago you embarked on a journey,
I was never a part of your itinerary.
The clouds drifted in the orange sky,
No more in my dreams would I dare to fly.
And as I take a last look at the setting sun,
All I seek is salvation.

Another visit to a beach in Oman that gave me the inspiration to write the poem. Read more about the beach - At Jebel Sifah Beach.
