"My only love sprung from my only hate! Too early seen unknown, & known too late! Prodigious birth of love it is to me, that I must love a loathed enemy" ~Romeo and Juliet

I stood along the sand
Staring far and wide
As the evening sun sunk past

Leaving a dark night sky.
I watched as the water changed
Slowly, from clear to blue

And slowly darkened
With the land
White to black to blue

I stood all through the night
Watching the crescent moon
Watching once again

As the land changed,
Slowly, from black to blue
I said hello to the sun

Then bade the beach farewell
As I walked farther onto land
Leaving the sea to dwell
