We Too Will Drift Away

We will soon find ourselves, in a much different place. We thought we were mountains, that could never drift away. We are more like the ice in the ocean, that floats every which way. Finding ourselves drifting farther away. As much as we say that we'll be close, one day the truth will come. We'll know after the time has passed that memories will be all that's left. Deep down in our hearts we'll still know what we were, but out on the surface we'll have moved on.
