like a magnetized magpie
you chase to know and see
what i am doing by the sea.
memories that last too long
should only be meant to drown
even if they were happy to have
when you were welcome.
i came back to the jetty
to sing to my sea
the songs you told me
were favorites for listening.
don't join me,
you aren't a guest
whether to stay or visit.
you have the albums
of pictures to look through.
it would be best
to remember me
in a picture for good.
