She's that strip of faded pavement that winds her way to the beach.
I love her still, thought, now I stand at the ocean's edge...
and watch her fade west, without me still.
My feet are cold and wet,
my breath smells of cheap whiskey and a day old high,
and I watch for the green kiss as my lover leaves me alone in the fading dusk...
alone and cold,
again,
and again,
night after night,
again,
and again.
