And start my day with glee.

Watching sunset, shoreline's agleam
A note Thou sent...

Eyes staring at the fading sun
as my lover sailed away
tears became the shoreline
she hated my tortured mind
I hated the river
of depression

The river waved good bye

Waves caressing our toes.
Whence they come and whither they go,
