The tide
has washed out,
Leaving only fear
and doubt.
The sand
on the bare, naked shore
is damp and cold,
The tide swept away
all that was
meaningful--the treasure
of gold!
Picture perfect,
now a distant memory,
Out of sight
is their beautiful life -
a love exemplary.
The crystal-clear water
has travelled too faraway
to reach-out and touch,
Long gone
is their loving reflection -
aching, they both miss it
so much!
