i dig my toes into the sand

the ocean looks like a thousand diamonds strewn across a blue blanket

i lean against the wind

pretend that i'm weightless

and in this moment, i am happy.

i wish you were here.

i lay my head unto the sand.

the sky resembles a backlit canopy with holes punched in it.

i'm counting UFOs

i signal them with my lighter

and in this moment i am happy.

i wish you were here.
