At The Beach<br />
by Christopher Hileman<br />
In those days I thought<br />
maybe I could still keep you,<br />
at least for a while.<br />
I schemed and worked up<br />
snares for your soul, so I hoped.<br />
I thought I needed<br />
you so near I could<br />
feel your breath in my fey ear.<br />
Then you got too hot<br />
and you rose up off<br />
the blanket, shook off the last<br />
of the sand, put out<br />
your hand to them all<br />
and they led you far away<br />
despite what I said.<br />
