Time Stamps In The Sand - Collaboration with Tim Smith

Aimless foot prints mark a wind torn shore

deserted rifts splitting a secluded scene,

(where romance rocked a heart between

painted paradise and realness once adored)

our heads inevitable drift even deeper inside

And as blood red curtains paint a choppy sea

where last sun rays die a temporary death,

(so wondrous how they hold their breath

to pat one later on the back with glee)

even shallower time stamps left by our feet

Everything erased a minute after we passed by

incessant and unrelenting a water without feel,

(your hand in mine, I bend over and steal

evening breeze kisses, almost shy)

and find myself in you a place to hide

An uncertain future held without hope

washed away shores with unfulfilled dreams,

(but because nothing is as bad as it seems

with you by my side, I can certainly cope)

together our spirits and lives are complete

***
