I Watched Our Love Roll Out With The Waves

by ABake   Jan 17, 2009


Tears fall from my eyes and roll away with a set of crashing waves;
My heart is pounding as my feet bury themselves in the sand.
Apologies are on the tip of my tongue, but I am afraid...
This time around, I am confident I did nothing wrong.
You say you want to go, I feel no need to show you the door-
Before, I wouldn't have given up, just kept fighting...

The moon is bright as ever, remember kissing under the stars?
Oh no, I can feel myself falling back into the trap of love;
I get up and shake the sand off of me, start to walk...
Thoughts are running through my mind, I count the stars-
I close my eyes and wish on 11:11 for the umpteenth time,
Do you remember the time when we were so alive, do you?

My mind runs through months and months of memories,
A whisper in the wind tells me this is for the best,
I’m happy to say, I will always be here but for now-
We have to take different paths, there’s no going back.
One last tear falls from my left eye, I let it fall into the ocean-
That lonely tear and the love we shared roll out with the waves.
