They placed my love inside Pandora’s Box. The box they placed atop a golden plinth. The plinth inside an empty room was locked. The room was hidden in a labyrinth. They built a palace on a desert dune And sunk it underneath the ocean spray. The truth behind the myth forgotten soon: Atlantis: built to hide my love away. Encased the myth inside a grain of sand And left upon a lost pacific beach. I feel the sapphire water in my hand And dream about my love, far out of reach. Awakening, my lonely body lies. Brush the sand out of my weary eyes.
