Inspired by..

"Everything's okay i can see your face down there in the waves painted and erased but i'm told it's just the reflection of the moon a big fake resembling you i'm gonna go down in the water and fill my mouth up full of sand and i'll be waiting still impatient with my dead imagination while you're with some other man"
- Elliott Smith

You Always Said I Had A Way With Words

A sun sits, a still orange on the broken horizon as the fading gold shows the footprints on the shore, I tread so lightly on the shifting sand and listen to the rhythmic beating of a steady heart dancing with the sound of the waves as the sun sits on the broken oceans edge.

I hear her calling me, a shaky voice sounding urgent but calm, the tune on the evening air, as the echo reaches me, my dead imagination thinks of you, my toes steadily sink into the shifting sand, I let my hand play in the sand writing your name, assembling each letter and placing the A just right.

I left before I could finish, clandestine lines drawn in simple sand, my handwriting was always so hard to understand, and I sit here on the ocean shore where our forever was supposed to be spent, I watch the shifting sand fall back into the sea, my words erased by the oceans way.

Once upon a time I had a way with words,
And once upon a time they were yours.
