Lovers

If love was lost at sea then mourn its passing carefully. Some day when your heart subsides then give into the open tide. I set you apart, you are a girl of mystery, I set you apart from time and history. Waiting all her life, you have been spending your days all alone, like a widow grieving. You hold onto the promise that you will see him again, like lovers in the evening. Look softly into her eyes; a figurine of bluish green. You are familiar as a lullaby, or an actress on the silver screen. For the open and great unknown, you’re leaving your heart at home. [bad word] and vast black waters, you leave behind your daughters. He regrets all his memories, and his soul is left to haunt the breeze alone
