Red-Sky Seas

I hear your voice, just a whisper I hear you sing it one last time I could have sworn I heard you say "I love you" before you turned away faded roses in your hand from the bed where they were strewn petals wilted and turning brown falling through fingers to the ground I didn't see the things you saw didn't know that it was there as a heart escapes what was in the air the end to a tragic love affair two lovers in the heat of night wait upon the sun to rise ships that sail under red-sky seas a love without a guaranty
