Beach Fever Blues

sinking in the sand and losing it
i am watching the whales and the dolphins play
a crab of some sort checks me out in its own way
a few sea gulls do the same
i watch you and him having as much fun as you wanna
i am remembering when he was me
the waves crash continuously running poetic interference 
regrets sneak up on me like a bully with water balloons of bad intentions
i sit and wonder when and where i went wrong
how could you leave me for the man who broke your heart until it wilted and bewildered
when he breaks your heart again, just tell him you love him again and swim straight for the sharks
buried in the sand and conceding to another lost battle
my broken heart is a damaged mirror undeservingly demoted to the seventh row
