Standing By the Tide
You and me
It was always that way
From the moment I first saw you
I looked deep into your eyes
You looked back
An electric shock jolted through my body
Traveling from the top of my head to the souls of my feet
I knew at that moment that I couldn’t live another second of my life without you.
You and me
We stand close avoiding the tide
I’ll read the story behind those eyes
Together we can teach each other to fly.
In the sand
A heart is made
In it are the names of two people
People who will always love each other
The heart stays out of the tides reach.
You say “I love you”
I swear it’s too good to be true
I don’t deserve you
But I can’t deny that I need you
You’re the air I breathe and without you I’ll suffocate
I hold your hand tight begging you please don’t go.
My heart beats at its own pace
Going much faster than my brain
So loud that anyone near could hear its song
But the loudness means its unguarded
With love comes pain
But I’m living now
Tomorrow can wait.
I look in your eyes
But you don’t look back
They fill with tears
What’s wrong?
The tide comes in faster, stronger
It sweeps you in ripping your hand away from mine
Then swallows you up.
But you’re not lost
Because it turns out you cannot loose something you don’t have
And that is far worse
Its like waking up from the most beautiful dream
And realizing it was not real
Nor will it ever be real…
You were imaginary.
An allusion
All in my head
Yes there is something worse than loosing a loved one
That is when you never had that love to begin with.
But you remain in my head
Though it’s all a lie
I still believe it
Sometimes the most memorable events
Are the ones that never happened.
I return to a place so familiar
All covered with golden sand
In the sand
A heart is made
In it are the names of two people that I’ve seen before
People who will always love each other.
