I picture myself on a sunny beach,

the bright green palm trees

blowing in the breeze.

and beside me is

the girl I love.

as I gaze into the crystal blue water,

I feel at home.

now we're sitting in a garden

where lovely flowers surround us

and the lemonade is sweet.

two little kids

twirl around us,

their laughs echoing

as they play.

our world would be quiet,

but I'd feel at peace.

the look on her face

the smile, the laugh,

so beautiful,

I wouldn't be able to help

but smile too,

one arm around her waist,

the other tangled in her hair.

now we're dancing,

swaying to the soft melodies

echoing through our living room

and one of my mother's old records

is playing.

it's late at night, but

the music is soft

and I find myself wishing

I could pause time

and live in this moment

forever.

Do I regret sending this to my teacher for an art project (a different project than before)?

no.

Am I now regretting it?

yup...
