We lost each other
in the currents of time
alone in the mist
the dust and the shadows
are all that remains
of the memories of yesterday
the sky fades from blue to grey
and I forget you a little day by day
I think of you, your whispers
how soon tomorrow
becomes today
tides forever flow
the soft undercurrent
slipping quickly now
shimmered with pastel colours
the raindrops are emerald
ruby and turquoise
as the light folds your image
upon the embrace of the sky
