Shadow of Memory
She walks in darkness in the light,
Rememberance the only sight
That fades
As the dawn breaks over the crest
Of the waves.
She finds rest and she finds peace
Inside the shelter of the leaves.
She finds stars that never cease
Beneath the night and endless seas.
She
Looks deep into the universe
And wonders at the light,
The thousand depthless, empty words
Unspoken in the night.
The moon is in her soul.
Who cares about control?
She's seen the world inside her eyes,
But she could never realize
That deep among the stars,
So deep inside the sea,
That deep inside the years' reflection,
Nothing still will be.
And time is lost and gone
As sunlight brings the dawn.
She's felt the sea beneath her eyes
Surrender tears.
She cries.
