Just this world and me...

I watch the sea,

Till I fall asleep,

Lulled by the sound of the waves

and drowsed by the salty breeze.

Sitting alone in the shade

of a coconut tree,

Looking at the far horizon,

At the enormity of the sea.

Its glistening surface

under the blazing sun’s heat,

Just the whole wide world,

And the grain of sand that’s me.
