i love this. to me it seems like the poet is speaking of how we tend to fantasize about the 'if' when we are in such beautiful places or good situation, and that by doing do we are selling ourselves short and not really appreciating what we get, and then when the poet wakes up from his fantasizing it's like he is using the sunburn as a metaphor for the sinking feeling, i get at least, when i realize i should be enjoying instead of thinking and wishing for more.

anyways, i am sort of out there about it,
i love it though! can you put more from the book up?
