As the comet trail
Reached our atmosphere
Burning a brilliant blue
I strolled the beach
Gazing at the sunset
Twas ever more golden
Than I had remembered
The wet sand felt luxurious
Scrunching between my toes
The October breeze
Was gentle and cool
And faintly scented
With a hint of remorse
Remorse for things
I had never done
Remorse for words
I had never said
