'sea Breeze'

All I see is water 
As far as my eyes will allow me

Almost forgot
What brought me here

It was the memories of you

The warmth of the sand
 In between my toes
A gentle reminder of what it felt like
Having you next to me

Holding my hand as we took
Our walks along the shore
We didn't have to say a word
Just allow the gentle sea breeze
To mask our footprints as we went

Could have been a similar day,
Could have been a similar time

But today -

It’s just me and the gentle sea breeze

To remind me of you
Not saying a word
And yet I can feel you
With every step I take
