I came

Back to our spot on the beach in hopes, you would show up.

I even wore the lights you gave me last Christmas.

I was hoping they would help you find your way back to me.

everything that was planned.

Before all this is a nice set of memories to look back on.

But now I stand here waiting to see your face.

To be able to enjoy the nice weather with you.

For it has been so long since I’ve seen you in person.

Facetime has been nice but it isn’t the same as sharing the same air and I miss your touch.

  1. exoticnita54 – I'm a happy 😊 girl.. with a positive outlook... very optimistic.. Passionate.. love a good conversation... love of humor... love to meet and learn about people from all over... Posses a little erotica persona... All in all... & most of all... I love ❤️ and value my friends.. no matter how far they may be... I’ve been writing since 2013—not because I’m a professional writer, but because I have a heart full of stories that refuse to stay silent. Life has introduced me to remarkable people. Some stayed for decades. Some were only with me for a season. Some taught me about love, friendship, sacrifice, loss, forgiveness, and resilience. Those are the stories you’ll find here. I write about family, lifelong friendships, people who left lasting footprints on my heart, growing up in Jamaica, gardening, the unexpected lessons of aging, and the ordinary moments that quietly become extraordinary. I don’t claim to have all the answers. I simply share what I lived, what I learned, and how those experiences shaped me. If something I write makes you smile, brings back a memory, encourages you, or helps you feel a little less alone in your own journey, then my story has found its purpose. Thank you for spending a little of your time with me. I hope you’ll stay awhile. — Maxine (ExoticNita54) “Some memories fade. The important ones deserve to be written.”

    1. mywords2228 – Love writing poetry and reading tons of books. I also write short fiction stories and hope to include them on my page soon; I hope you enjoy my work, and thanks for stopping by my page.
