Sounds of love

"Old lives remembered, but put aside"

Font Size

Waves crackle upon the shore

Shingle breaking in the receding wash

Remind me of us, colliding, tumbling, crashing

The spray of the salt air, sweet to my mind

The smell fills our senses, the sun bright above

Creaking of the pier as the waves attack

The shush of the sand as the tide pulls away

Seagulls overhead, wheeling, crying

The wind dying, clouds float on by

A lithium high, love the new prescription

Towering thermals rising high above

Sweep us upwards towards ecstasy

Yachts float by on the tide

Their sails flirting with the winds

Bows cutting through the troughs and peaks

Finding each other happens once in a lifetime

Filling the void, our worlds collide

Happiness, love, contentment endure

Old lives remembered, but put aside

Hand in hand, upon the sand

The past painful, but the future is ours to share

Waves crackle upon the shore

Making me want you more and more…
