I lost my care-full
soul...
where?
there,
down by the sea...

She cast a smiling
glance...
where?
there,
looking back at me...

I'm sure
I left my soul...
where?
there,
down by the sea...

I stooped to pick
it up...
where?
there,
down by the sea...

I watched as
she walked away...
where?
there,
into the waiting sea...

I let it slip like
sand...
where?
between care-less
thoughts and fingers,
there?
yes- into the waiting sea...
