Shadow of Memory

She walks in darkness in the light, Rememberance the only sight That fades As the dawn breaks over the crest Of the waves. She finds rest and she finds peace Inside the shelter of the leaves. She finds stars that never cease Beneath the night and endless seas. She Looks deep into the universe And wonders at the light, The thousand depthless, empty words Unspoken in the night. The moon is in her soul. Who cares about control? She's seen the world inside her eyes, But she could never realize That deep among the stars, So deep inside the sea, That deep inside the years' reflection, Nothing still will be. And time is lost and gone As sunlight brings the dawn. She's felt the sea beneath her eyes Surrender tears. She cries.
