did you ever read
the love letters I sent
across the wind,
wept within the ocean?

or am I buried
beneath the sand
of all your forgotten
memories?

did you ever hear
the whistled song of love
I gave the birds to carry,
the whispers of my heart?

or has the tune
long faded with the dark
the lost echo
of a dying star?

do you remember us
or am I just a dream
alone in disillusion
of once upon a time,

flare gun
burning in the night
a single flame
desperately searching for something that is already gone

sailing on the sea
messages in a bottle,
a quest to find you
in the mass of disarray,
broken pieces of my heart.

a lost signal
