I swallowed the sea And it was as salty as your lips And just like the endless forever that falls from them I was drowning in it
You called my number And I took it as a sign Living life free on the wind And though paths were walked not a footprint remains
All is lost in time and time always wins Moments make minutes mask months into seasons of lives everlasting I cherish the wind for the calm only it can bring And the shoreline renewed by the waves that crash into it
This moment may not last forever But who can say when moments start or end? A moment is forever for as long as it’s remembered Live inside it and you’ll always be in a place you left behind
Genuine abandon First comes and then is lost Broken, bound, and wounded Heal stronger but never without the scars
Pure dreams forever shaken A chance shot but not worth taking Secured oneself at the cost of whats been taken A life that closes opens another in the making
A little free form piece I wrote while staring out at the sea about the opposing feelings and lessons I’ve learned in life and the way they all balance out dynamically over time.
