I'm not sure I like the sound of ocean waves. I've never loved the beach, sand is uncomfortable and the heat is asphyxiating. I only come because that is what people do when they go on vacation.
We both care about that, about what people do. I care because I don't want to stand out. I don't know why you care. Maybe it's because you like following the crowd; because it is easier to go along than to lead, like the ocean waves that crash one after the other in a never ending loop. I never thought of you as a wave, I always thought you'd be a lighthouse.
I hope your light is leading someone home.
