an oasis of happy in this desert of fuck up


it was the perfect day
the sunlight streamed through the green leaves creating dappled light. we sat on the lounges and watched them swim. her laughter was like music as he chased after her. it was funny watching how naively they played. we sat back and i rolled my eyes over his singlet tan lines, every freckle and blemish. he was singing to himself and i was sucking on an ice block in awe of this easy effortless scene. he offered me an earphone, i declined and he pushed it into my hand. laughing at his stubbornness i curiously put the earphone in. not head banger music, not rock or rap, peaceful happy music. the kind of music that makes you appreciate life a little more. here is where i belong, but then in a flash it was over. he was gone, the pool was empty and i was left with the Eco of laughter ringing faintly ringing in my ears.
