the end of a love affair with sun and surf
Our Wonder

When did we lose our wonder?
And where alone did it all go?
How could it leave us this wintry night?
The wind,
A leaf,
Some snow.

Where is our misdirection?
The sands, they block our path.
We walk around.
Our footprints gone.
This breath,
A struggle's last.

So why did we lose our wonder?
With whom did it elope?
It seems it was lost in a myriad of lies,
Red sun,
Blue surf,
All smoke.
