Echoes Of The Silent Shore
I walk alone
my love has let me be
and my spirit roams free
The shoreline is my friend
little birds dart along the edge
of the surf ever so playful
But my heart aches in pain
remembering my love
that left me long ago
I see the pelicans fly by
in unison with their friends
can they feel for me, my heart bleeding
Each footstep in the sand echoes
against the silent shore and I cry to the Gods
why am I so forsaken
Will a new love bandage my pains
and drive away the demons
only the sunset will know her name
It begins to rain
and thoughts of her love is my umbrella
that keeps my soul dry
So many loves in one lifetime
but only one reigns
as soulmates to the ocean’s waves
But I’ll never forget
the fragile one
who broke my heart
But don’t look back
the angels cry
as I heed their sorrowful call
