Remember Me… I see you in your paradise of wind crashing waves and sunlight move together to form flowing crystal rain splashing onto shore I conjure up your image, see you living your dreams and knowing you never think of me now… though you have lived my life for me An error of my heart which I must account for to the many that I hurt in your name I live with the crippled trust you left to me, a scar transferred to all I touched afterward But you…bathed in the ocean breezes, castled in the sands of islands… You live without memory of my love Blind to my face behind closed eyes Any reminder of me washed away in the tides of your Eden I send these words on a voyage into the gulf…a message in a bottle to float into your pirate mind and recall me from the guilty passages of your history A fleeting sight of the ship of illusion that you captained so skillfully… and abandoned so easily to sink to the depths of a watery hell I sail on…grace and honor reviving my masts Fresh currents like smooth glass lead me to new seas of glory and there are no thieves to steal the gold from my eyes Remember me… caroline 1999 all rights reserved ------------------ The only man worth your tears will never make you cry... |
