Silent laughters to disquiet tears

The night's dark. Its sky, starless. The moon's hiding. It scared even to take a peek at the earth. The ocean seems vast and endless even more than it seemed under the sun. The sand feels cold under the feet. I am sitting on a swing which is made of a wooden plank and rope. I gaze far out into the sea. A few lights blinking at the horizon. The ships are totally unaware that i am watching them. The sea breeze is blowing. It brings about a sense a familiarity with it. It reminds me of the song 'Another place, another time'. It causes a small flutter in my ribcage. There is a sudden crash of waves on the rocks. I am jolted out of the trance. My silent laughters begin to get mingled with my disquiet tears.
