An Ocean of Time

 

Memories reverberate across the ocean wave

you touch my heart on the crest of each nerve

I want to reach out but the mist of time says 'no'

yet for the sake of love I cannot let go

 

Time has not lessened my passion for you

despite all others my heart has remained true

I am blessed with good fortune yet sad

between us there was no room for anything bad

 

I am outwardly content but broken inside

my thoughts and emotions have nowhere to hide

I wish I could break down every barrier

to float across the waves to where I would be happier

 

Life weaves a pattern which can be so unkind

which leaves so much of who we are behind

Do you think we still have the time or day

to let our hearts really have their say
