Eden Rock - Extract and Analysis
They are waiting beside the white side of the road, my father and my mother, and I had not thought that it would be like this. I had not thought that the light would be like this. The sky was a deep blue, and the clouds were streaked with pink, as if the sky had been painted. The grass was lush and green, and the air was filled with the scent of fresh rain. I saw my childhood self sitting on the curb, smiling, waiting for the moment to cross over. The sun was beginning to set, casting a golden glow over everything. I remembered the times we played on the beach, the summer days we spent together, and the quiet moments of certainty that life was good. Then I looked at my parents, and I knew that this was the place where love and memory met, where stories lingered beyond the reach of time. The light shimmered over the water, and I felt a gentle tug to step forward into what lies beyond.
