You Will Find Me...

You will find me,
Under the stars
Gazing at the diamonds suspended against the endless black velvet

You will find me,
On the beach
Being one with a board,
Wiping out all of a sudden, gasping for air
Laughing my head off
Avoiding sharks

You will find me,
Out on the rocks
Climbing my way up to the top
Imagining Erasers jumping up, clawing for my leg

You will find me,
Under a bed, reading all night long,
Waiting for the world to change,
and the thunderstorm to end

You will find me,
At the football field
All out in cleats, padding and jersey
Catching an eye-shaped ball, spinning in the air
Scoring a touchdown and shouting cheers

You will find me,
In my room
Sleeping in my bed,
With an uneasy heart
Knowing that he might come back to my window

You won't find me,
On this Earth.
