Caressed by the enchanting moonlight's dance,
I sit and contemplate in this deserted expanse.

Marveling at the beauty of memories past,
Thoughts of moments lost, like shadows cast.

Scraping sand dunes, insignificant yet cruel,
They dig into my being, a reminder I'm alive, a fuel.

Oh, mi amor! I wish for death or a fleeting breath,
But here I remain, a mere rubble, life's duress.

You entered my brittle bones like a smoky haze,
Burning, spreading within, a fire's relentless blaze.

I pour my anguish and pain into a sparkling tear,
Its meaning evaporates, like a fading crackle, unclear.

The ocean's deafening sound, a resounding roar,
It crashes, kisses my feet, my heart starts to soar.

In stillness, I close my eyes, seeking a serene retreat,
Running towards an elusive paradise, my pursuit; incomplete!

Detached and numb, excitement intertwines with fear,
Brooding beneath the moonlit sky, my soul laid bare.
