Sea Glass

I spent the summertime with ghosts

The ocean currents took their toll

I kept the messages you wrote

My refuge etched in stone

I hate this permanent divide

Long drives with nothing left to write

These instrumentals haunt my nights

Your words are peace of mind

Frustrated broken down

Dragged under tidal waves to drown

Your light is the safe harbor I found

Cause when I see your face lighting up the sky like the moonlight

Tension fades, saving grace keeping me alive

Sometimes I lie awake and contemplate mistakes till the sunrise

You can paint the pain away tonight

With shades of blue inside your lucent eyes

The colors that illuminate the sky

Their light is my entire life

The first trace of autumn cold at night

You left the windows open wide

Your eyes are all I hope to find

Beneath the ocean pines

You love the sun upon the sea

You take it with you constantly

A vibrant color on your sleeve

I keep it close to me

Frustrated broken down

Dragged under tidal waves to drown

Your light is the safe harbor I found

Cause when I see your face lighting up the sky like the moonlight

Tension fades, saving grace keeping me alive

Sometimes I lie awake and contemplate mistakes till the sunrise

You can paint the pain away tonight

I saw the sea glass you left inside

Dark green looks beautiful tonight

Reflections catch your eye

When you walk beside the ocean

Sea glass you left inside

Sky blue and porcelain combined

Their colors emphasize

Your light

I should’ve let this go

I kept you ghost

It left me hopeless

I feel the tempest grow again

But I saw your green light glow

It seems like home

Across the ocean

I’ll never let you go again
