Nazaret Ranea: Here on the sand, I lie down

Posted byCat ChongPosted inUncategorized

Here on the sand, I lie down,
right on the edge of your shore,
and I open my mouth,
so alone,
waiting for you to return.

But only the waves arrive,
which I swallow one by one,
so alone,
here on the shore.

Sighing among the waves,
here on the sand, I lie down,
so alone,
deforming myself,
causing a sea storm.
