The guy in the pink shirt.

On a balmy night,

by the beach,

The fireflies came out,

just as people began to meet.

It was one of those weeks,

that needed the perfect end,

A day to catch some tan,

and a day to just unwind and mend.

Amongst the crowd,

and in the summer heat,

A man stood tall,

his heart complete.

He wore a pink shirt,

and vibed to the house beats.

He had a kind face,

And a spirit that sparkled, wild and free.

He held a beer in one hand,

while the other held a shot of Green tea.

He reveled in the summer’s delight,

For he stood in a city,

He loved the most.

Surrounded by people,

Who made his heart whole.

In this lifetime,

simple pleasures were his aim.

To find true love and lead life ablaze.

His dreams were boundless,

like the night sky,

He had a passion for living,

So he dared to fly high.

And as the stars adorned the celestial dome,

He knew at that moment,

he’d found his home.
