Sending Paper Boat Message

by Steven   Apr 12, 2013


One could say a dream is endless
a never ending goal that never seems to stop
even when our time is toward the end of life
we can only dream of the day to be put to rest in the sea

could one say the same for love in the end?
where it becomes a endless goal and dream that one wants to reach
finding themselves standing by the ocean sea and screaming
hoping the person on the other side could hear their plea

A message in a bottle was once something romantic
myth and legends about love that blooms from such beginning
this time it's going to be a different story
where one would write out his dreams and goals
and send it out to the open sea

Sending a paper boat message, carrying our dreams and wishes
soon to fight the heavy storms and waves before it's path
to reach a destination that is left unknown on an map
we can only pray and wish that it reaches another world
if we wish to continue to chase such a dream

What will you send away in the end on this paper boat?
the painful memories of love that was stolen?
the loss of someone who once was important to you?
the regrets that you dread over the years of this life?
it's time for you to send it away to another world

put those memories and dreams onto the boat
and set sail for the massive ocean sea
let the winds and ocean take it to where it wishes to be
set a blaze the things that haunted you as a whole
To watch from afar the changes that soon start to happen
when you finally realize it's time to let go of the past
that you once dreamed for "two"
Is when you truly feel that your free to be taken by the world
and it's wonderful embrace of joy and happiness
