Empty Horizon

Empty Horizon

Because there was nothing else to do

I turned my back on the sea and you

And headed home

By the time I reached the top of the path

All sight of your ship was gone

I stood for a while

And carefully watched nothing on the horizon

I thought of grains of sand

Running through my hands

Losing themselves on the beach

Hiding out of reach

And I wondered what happens to dreams

That get washed away with the tide .....
