Inhaling summers sunset fills my existence,
as soft zephyr's of forever escape your lips.
I grasp onto eternity and my soul sighs in tune,
we are one as ocean's tides ebb and flow throughout time.
Hearts skip through shallow leaves,
in exhaled dance where unity is freedom.
Oh never again to inhale such beauty, nor hear sweet whispers,
where my soul ceases to resonate and the tides no longer sway.
I inhale these thoughts like daggers into my heart
and then there is nothing... for you are gone.
