Threw

I Came to the edge of a ocean looking off to the sea Grabbed up scraps of steel parts of old cars and I threw them to the water below Thinking to myself perhaps I threw myself in too Then I took out the urn held it high to the shine her last rays of sun and I swiftly threw her into the deep dark sea And there she sank to the floor below to start her life new as the mother of pearls There she goes to the eternal under the sea where she always wanted to be Maybe the sun will shine and evap the water into clouds And her spirit rises into the air filling the sky covering me as I cry and the clouds begin to rain to pour her love over me again Instead I took out the urn held it high to the shine for her last rays of sun and swiftly I threw her into the deep dark sea And there she sank to the floor below to start her life new where she always wanted to be as the mother of pearls.
