Waves Crash!
written by: Monalisa Parida
The nite’s sky is full of fireflies
And my thoughts are full of you.
I miss you
Like the desert misses the rain.
Even though I know
We can never be together again.
I long for you
Like a ship lost in the sea,
Searching for a shore
That can never be found.
Beside the sea
I found you
Crashing in your own waves.
Beside the sea
I lost you
In the things we couldn’t say.
But I believe
One day,
I’ll find it
The place,
The person,
The reason
All this suffering was worth it.
Because when our eyes met for the first time,
I just knew you’d be my adventure for a lifetime.
