Chapter 7 - East coast Loneliness

i want to be
right here,
stand victorious
on the pier.
i want to walk
hand in hand,
write my name in the sand
next to
yours

i want to feel
the wind run through my hair
i want to sprint the beach
and not give a care
about my scars,
about what's too far away
i don't wanna close my eyes
i can't fall asleep at night
don't know how i'll survive
from this east coast loneliness


don't want to be left
alone
want to find a seaside home
with you
one with a seashell balcony,
one with a view of the sea--
just you and
me

i want to see
the tides crash through the air
i want to skim the waves
and not give a care
about my scars,
about what's too far away
from this east coast loneliness


don't want to see
the sound
i want to stay around
just you
not in mix of
the freshwater and sea,
i want the perfect place
for you and me

i want to hear
the sound break through the banks
don't want to see the ocean
squished inside a fish tank

don't want to think
about the sharks,
about what's too far away
from this east coast loneliness


i want an ocean
to wash away my fears
i want a current
to bring me back here--
a place where summer
never seems to end
a place where you and i
once were friends

i want the sunset
to hide away my worries
behind the clouds
where everything is blurry--
a place where nothing seems
all too bad
a place where friendship
once had sat

i want to feel
like everything is even
i want to feel reassured
when i'm dreaming
of the good times
til the day i die--
when close my eyes,
fall asleep at night--
and i hope i'll survive
from this east coast loneliness.
