The Last

Massing waves drummed offshore
Above them a partnered wind blew
Together they prepared to war
Against what I once knew

The dark and cold green vastness 
Carried forward my waterloo 
Upon the rocks it did press
Against what I once knew

Then a gray shadowed the land 
Coloring my thought of you 
And as the waves broke across the sand
They removed all I once knew
