I stood, lonesome, beneath swaying trees
Their shadows flickered in a moonlit breeze
The starlight danced where the darkness grew
The sand, miles long, an infinite view
A boat in the distance, lit by the moon
Its sails held captive, its hull battered and strewn
The seagull perched, on the lonely mast
Overlooking the night’s starry forecast
The waves of sea, and people’s voices entwined
A chorus of life, both harsh and kind
The tide pulled my thoughts, washed away on their own
Carrying silence where noise had once grown
The moon’s dazzling light carved a shimmering line
A path into horizon, a future divine
For now, I lingered, caught in the night
Bound by the sea, the sand, and the light
