Music takes me places sometimes.. to places I don't want to be. My heart and mind don't always agree...


Close to the sea...


Washed my face in sunrise,
And took my sandals off
To wander in the morning waves.

Never could stand to be alone,
And you held me close in the rain
While storms brewed in the distance.

What did I forget to tell you
When I had a chance to hold you
In the breezes of summers night?

Did I tell you about the coldness?
Did I tell you about the loneliness?
Did I tell you about tomorrow?

Time forgets to stop the hurt,
And today seems much too long
While shadows fall far too dark.

As the waves lap at my toes,
And the morning rays touch my hair,
I pray that you are smiling with me..

Smiling and dreaming and singing,
As I walk hand and hand with you,
As close as I can..close to the sea.

Great poem - might grow even stronger if you apply tools like rhyme and rhythm to further your goals - anyway, keep up the good work! :)
