Beach Me.

I lie in wet sand. Eyes closed.

I feel the sea caressing my ankles as they bow to the tide… slowly, almost sensuously... and I fantasize... and I begin to wish on the last star I see to let the night stay.

I feel the last surge of the cold water embrace me... I feel the tiny hairs on my shoulders, my arms and on my bare belly stand on end...

I hear myself moan. A throaty, cat-like purr escapes my salty lips. And I fantasize with no end in sight.
A whiff passes my nostrils... of orchids and mint... my back arches from the beautiful scent and I struggle to gain control... I breathe deeper... languid breaths relax what remains of my tingling soul.

I lie in still wet sand. I open my eyes.

The sun is peeking. I can see its rays trying to reach me.

Ah. Daylight.

I try to move away. Inch by inch. My mind flashes with images of refuge. But I still lie.

It is a losing battle, I know. Foolish of me to ponder that I can run away from the laws of nature.

So I succumb to the light. I give in to the heat.

I do not dare move now. I feel the anguish in its glare. I do not close my eyes.

And I take it all in.
Until I burn with the twisted pleasure. Until I glow with the fantasy... and languish in what may not be.

nice imagery, aptly conveying the emotions that urgently need to be expressed.

as if I were a small crab in the sand, witnessing the interplay of nature and (wo)man.

quite a satifying peice. :D

hmm. is this some sort of a subconscious imagery brought about by repeated frustrations with an emotional attachment to an object, i.e. a person, and coming out as a vivid interlude about by a mixture of a common hydrogen compound with a silicon-based solid? :}

@patty: hey, thanks. Oh, I'm getting by. I'm trying to stop and just say no, but mahirap nga. I'm trying, I really am.

I'm just thinking, if he really wants me, he should've done something by now.

Ugh. As my friend said it's a lost cause. And he is. I've long realized that I'm not the kind of girl he'll go after. Oh well.

Okay, nobela na ito. Dapat gumawa na lang ako ng bagong entry.

Hehe. Abangan ang susunod na melancholic entry. ;)
