it was a beach. 13 magnolia boulevard.

it was a party. the bass and rock shrilled; the ground shook from its loudness, and even the grains of sand jumped in fright. 

i walked towards the sea. the noise faded, as if lulled to sleep by the gentle lapping waves. this was dusk, the sky gold, copper, dusty rose. this was quiet. 

and i saw her, half-submerged in the ocean. we were b y z a n t i u m, silhouettes in the fading light. 

hey

she was silent. finally;

hey.

we stood in the sea and watched the light turn to dark. it was silent.

but it was enough.
