The Lonely Sea
The moon shines on a quiet beach,
From somewhere far out of reach.
I sit alone as the tide goes in
And watch it go back out again.
I long for someone here with me,
To talk to me of what could be.
To tell me everything's okay,
Even during my worst days.
But, through the night, alone I stay,
Just waiting for a brand new day.
I want to leave this lonely place
For somewhere no one knows my face.
A fresh start, that's all I need.
Not those who know my past deeds.
I don't need their judging eyes,
I don't want to hear their lies.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll break away,
And find a new place to stay.
Maybe I'll find someone there,
Someone who will really care.
But, for tonight, I'm content
To stay and watch the sun's ascent
To the heights unknown to me,
And think of all there could be.
