THE BLUFF


She stands high on the bluff
Over looking the ocean
Her eyes filled with droplets
As she remembers him touching her gently

Now long gone into the sea
Her love still remains
She know one day they will be
Together again united in touch

She turns to return to a life
Seemingly empty now
Holding on to the memory
Not today, she will wait to join him

People walk by
Without knowing her mind
Her thoughts hidden from view
His face painted in her heart
