Arrival Poem by Alaude Solus

There was once a man
sitting by the shore.
He can’t see the sun,
as he did before.

He saw the passers-by
walking together.
As the seagulls fly,
all seems forever.

He started to think,
“I just wish you’re here.
Let’s watch the stars blink,
because I miss you, dear.”

The clock strikes to twelve,
he still keeps waiting.
He tries to tell himself,
“Is she ever coming? ”

At last,
under the moonlight beam,
she was
standing there in front of him.
