Washing Us Away
The day I left my world for yours
I thought I would never return to mine
But you pushed me out the door
I no longer fit your design
Walking down this road
It's dark and I'm alone
I admit I'm scared without you
I don't remember my way home
Your world we made our home
All the fun and memories
We shared in that bright world of yours
Making Love Story our melody
Sometimes there's no more breath in me
My blood ceases to run
My heart no longer beats
Since you are not the one
The funeral of my heart I attended today
It's buried in the sand
So the tides will carry it out one day
Right into your hand
So swim inside the ocean
Promise to think of me
Only there does my heart beat for you
Deep under the sea
My love is knocking
Like a wave pounds the shore
Washing up over you
But yet you lock your door
So my love recedes in tide
To await fairer weather
When it no longer has to hide
And we can be together
Though that day may never come
I refuse to give up hope
My life depends on your love alone
Without it I couldn't cope
I will walk away
Relinquish my ties to thee
Please do not get caught in my storm
Or you will cease to be
Temperamental as the tides
Violent lashing when enraged
Angry that your love subsides
My jealousy will not assuage
But I assure you
This too shall pass
We will have fun again
My tantrums never last
I love you and you love me
Said the seashore to the sea
But our love will float away
We were never meant to be
I finally figured us out
Our wild, crazy existence
We only make sense to eachother
As in the tide we dance
True we were once lovers
Passionate, on fire
But in the end
We should be friends
What we most desire
I know every contour of your shores
And every grain of sand
But I move on, just as before
On to higher land
Moving on is ok
We will always keep in touch
Forever colliding sand and sea
Mixing up so much
You have a blissful life
Awaiting on the beach
Bliss, in the form of a girl
With a lot more love to teach
I will look on from beneath the surface
With a smile you can trace
Glad that my best friend is loved
To see the love light shine from his face
Flowing now are calmer waters
Peace I now give to you
Enjoy the memories left to me
And the love I gave to you
Follow your heart
Never cast a second glance
I'm thankful for the fairytale you gave me
Thanks for giving me a chance
-The End-
