My Death Now Or To Come

As the surf hits the rocks below Legend’s Bluff My dreams smash with them, to broken shards Reflecting upon this moment and all moments past My left foot tempts fate by stepping closer to the edge It wasn’t long ago, we both sat here watching the sunset Her eyes reflected the crystal blue of the water Our hearts, together, sounded, pounded, louder than the surf They were happy days then, lost to the forgotten wind now But here I stand with that wind at my back Pushing me into the possibility of eternal regret Continue on or turn away? Questions I alone will know the answer to
