there was a time
when we played
in the meadows
of glory
you and i
we surfed and danced
in the summer breeze
and sang out our song
of love
solitary souls forever joined
we dived and feasted
throughout our days
unaware of the coming storm
darkening our horizon
can you see me
do you hear my cry
i call out to you
but my words echo
off the wall of hope
the winds have shifted
and i have been
left
behind
