Like the waves memories
of you roll back to me.
I have written your name
on the sands of my mind
and like the rushing waves
my tears wash it all away.
How long will I be able
to keep your memory alive?
In words I have tried to capture
your soul, your being
but I have totally failed all of the time
and like a hourglass
your time is running out
and like the wind blowing back in my face
it’s only the sorrow that remains
although I do not want to forget you
as you have left a mark on my soul
and in my dreams I call out your name,
I look for you in many faces all around me
but many years have gone by
and only memories remain
and I wonder if that is all that is left of us:
dreams and loneliness
but I still do write your name
on the sands of my mind
and the waves of sorrow still washes it away
and I wonder how long will it be
before I loose it all?
