Wine From Roses

I search within these grains of sand Sifting slowly through my hands Seeking that one special key to unlock the tomb of memories All the footprints washed away by tides but once upon a time still lives inside Calling back the endless pleasures Waking thoughts of bygone treasures I still wring wine from dried out roses and sculpt hard rock in limber poses I can still find sugar in the ocean salt when time rewinds and my mind comes to halt. For once a dream I dreamed came true I walked along these shores with you The love we shared still whispers on the sea this sea of endless memories.
