There on the beach
the young woman writes,
fingers pretending
they touch hope;
finding
as the foam dies
no cheers,
the echo of whys
swinging salty
on sandy rope;
hanging around
wanting to trust
the rust
of near success
to send her back
with the rest,
lost in the joyful crowd
silent
in its pleasure pain.
