Dolphins Tears
Though we can't replace
That which has passed
Leaving a Door ajar
For others to follow
May be the light at the end of the tunnel
Future escapes into the landscape
Loss is lost
And the only price the dead will pay
Is knowing that the living cared
Enough to place their name upon
Another birth that ships can sail
Beside the Dolphins swimming on the tides of Love
The Sea of Soul's in tranquil water's
Dream of those the wake has left
Above dry land in Blackened Suits
With wind burst face crying tears
For year's to come and year's to blow
The Dolphins swim in the hallowed light
Reflecting Oceans back to Black
Ashes to Ashes
Living Matters
To eyes wide shut
A thousand leagues in sunken depths
Titanic myths and hand slammed blistered rivets
End up Sunk Treasure
In fish tank window's
Closed
Like yesterday's newspaper
Past
Looking through the hour glass
