I Fell In Love There Xx

A Memory of Seaburn.

I had never been to the north of England, I am a Cockney London girl, four years ago I met my angel of the north, I came to Seaburn where he lived, I love the place and the people, for the first time in my life I felt a sense of contentment. I walked along Roker beach, Sea Road, I adored the little shops there, I planned to leave London and set up home in Seaburn, I could so have been happy there, people just saying hello to you while walking along the beach, that just does not happen in the east end of London any more! But I felt safe to be there and safe with a man I truly loved... We planned to meet on New Year's Day 2008, at 12 on the beach at Seaburn, and start our new life together once and for all, but due to a family issue I did not make it on New Year's Day, and my dream faded, so it was not meant to be, but I will always look back with great fondness and love of Seaburn and Roker, they will always hold a special place in my heart forever. I can look and smile now when I see pictures, even with a pain inside like I can't describe, and only still imagine what my life could have been living there with a man, a man who told me about the sea and life, a man from the north, but I will come a visit Seaburn again, if only to pick up a pebble on the beach, throw it in the sea, and make a wish..... xxx
