Out to sea

The waves are lapping on the shore
Calling me out to sea
When you hear them crash again
Stop and think of me

The pebbles click against each other
Wearing each other away
When you hear the pebbles click
Remember this sad day

I can see the island beckon
Like a mother to her child
My mind is calm and tranquil
But the waters here are wild

My heart is on the island
But not for very long
I'm drifting like a piece of wood
This is my final song

When you look out across the ocean
When you stare across the bay
Remember I loved that island
Please don't forget this day.

OK so this isn't what you had in mind, and it's not what I had in mind either, but it's what happened, so hey! I suppose really this is the sort of thing I would say, rather than 'goodbye, I'm sorry, it's not your fault' or shit like that. Death, like life, is beautiful, but cruel, and what is more like that than the sea?
I may come back and do some edits when I have the time.
