Away from the crowd

Finding a place under the sun,
A place to rest my burdened soul.
Sitting in my solitude,
The silence a balm to my aching heart.

Just a face trying to fade away in the crowd,
Drowning my thoughts in each wave.
Accompanied by memories of a distant past,
Familiar faces lost in the hands of time.

The sound of the waves against the rock,
Is the shattering of each dream.
But the horizon gives me hope,
For I know there is a lot more to see.
