i listened to you

oh so carefully

how did i miss

what you were telling me?

if best efforts were never enough

than you were impossible to please

i gave you all i was

wanted nothing more

you could’ve had a perfect girl

instead you have a burned bridge

always the demon, was i

forever wrong in your eyes

could i have done better,

to fit into your dream?

i only ever wanted

a mother

you only ever

what i could never give

i dream of you

by the seaside

you always said we’d end up

a couple by the ocean

an old house

on the cliff side

are you there now,

waiting for me?

or did you wander far away

the same as i?

sea salt tears down your cheeks

the clear blue ocean reflected in your cloudy eyes

a soul as tempestuous as the waves

a heart as steady as the tides

you are my rocky shoreline, dear
