The Sand and the Sea

THE SAND AND THE SEA

Looking through windows 
 of the sand and the sea
all you can find
 is what never can be

all you can touch
 is her face with your mind
all you can know 
 is what you'll never find

all you can have
 is the sand and the sea
the look in her eyes,
 and what never can be.
