the gingerbread girl
i remember the feel of wet sand
between my toes
squishing under my weight
and lightly scratching
the bottoms of my feet
running wild and careless
along the periphery
of the ocean where it kissed the shore
only stopping to pick up a seashell
so i could hear the salty voice
of the sea caressing my ear
summer sun
unnoticed
baking me to a rich golden brown
a gingerbread girl
alive and fearless
standing on the sands of time
those sands have long run out
now i stand
feet boxed in socks and boots
on ashes and soot
with nowhere to run
not kissed by anything or anyone
the voice of the sea a dim whisper
in my catalogue of memories
skin pale like ancient veined marble
and just as cold
the gingerbread girl is dead
just a dim memory in stale crumbs
