Sailboats do tell Tales (For Cpat) |

The smoke does rise, above the eastern peir as folded sailboats meet the land. Not one foot stepped lightly upon the shore, not one treading horse was wild in shedding grace. And still, a soft horizon was met with blown away kisses that never got to their reciever. The sun does burn them all away.. So we may forget the words we meant not to speak, but are spoken through time.. perpetually. Our fingers may never caress in haste, in judgement, must you be a traitor to my words.. I've moaned through the eyes of midnight and sung in tune with nocturnal birds.. and still, these boats do not hault in their folly.. My beastly forewarning of a tortured storm that holds nothing but the wrong answers to the right questions. So this is what it's like to collapse in the arms of desolation... I will forget ye not.
