This is my response to FeatherDawn's Poetry Challenge...
Upon a distant shoreline... Upon a distant shoreline
Of some ancient half-forgotten sea,
I sit and watch the tide come in
As the waves crash over me...
Upon a distant shoreline
In a time so very far away,
We sat so close together
And watched the sun rise on a new day...
Upon a distant shoreline
That seems like a lifetime ago,
You left the beach and walked away
Though I begged you not to go...
Upon a distant shoreline,
I remain here still
Maybe you'll come back one day,
How I hope you will...
Upon a distant shoreline,
The end grows ever near
As the waves crash down upon my soul
And break upon every tear...
