The boy with the toy?

I walked to the beach
and along the shore
there was a boy
playing with a toy.

I walked up to him and
asked what is that in your hand
what he said i will never forget for
that it will always be in my head.

we walked along the beach
all day like the world would
never come to an end, but
to my surprise i find the boy dead.

I cried and cried for maybe
a moment or two, but
then got up and find the boy
there too.

I ran up to give him a hug
and something i never would
have anticipated happened I
ran into a man.

The man picked me up and
swung me around like he
knew me my entire life, right
then and there i saw it.

I looked him deep in the
eyes and there I saw the boy.
Then I thought back to when
I saw the boy with the toy.

It was not a toy it was a
picture of this very moment
and i began to cry, but
then I rememberd that boy
was me.
