Ghost Ship

Sailing on endless seas
Lost to broken promises

Floating coast to coast
Captured by east and west

Rusting to shattered anchor
Rescued by time to hoister

Two hearts floating forever
In life, each other's lover

An elaborate tombstone
Of coral reef and limestone

When love was romantic
And being in love - fantastic

When a first kiss was poetic
We haunted the Atlantic

On our waves goodbye
Swem and learned to fly

A honeymoon married to the sea
On the skeleton coast's memory
