Beseech
The waves took our memories
And washed them out to sea
When bitter truth was spoken
In words you didn’t want to be
Revealed like a shell on a beach
As I spoke and chose to beseech
You left like the tide, in your retreat
After fighting on ground, we couldn’t meet
You stayed in a life tangled by lies
I stood alone, where the seagull flies
Where pain cut the years of family ties
