Inimitable

I haven't written a poem in a very long time.
I ran away to Josh's house.
We sat on the beach at midnight
Watching the waves smash against the rocks
They crept threateningly towards our blanket
The sea rose up like a wall
its momentum was menacing
I watched it in fear
as the cold night air seeped through my sundress
He smoked a cigar
There was no moon
The foam crawled silently to our edge
closer
closer

Now I'm listening to the Christmas music play
and trying to be brave.
