your sky vast and crystal clear
my heart wide open

face autumn's twilight.

away from our eager feet
it never turns back

its twin in the calm water
whisper timeless tales

Sitting on the beach of Death
The tide rushes in

The ocean is crystal grey
salty Milky Way

thunder rolling overhead
we're caught in full bloom

Beating the rocks into sand
Only to retreat

Dark clouds 'cross the sky.
Raindrops beat against the glass,
playing the rain song.

Tides washing the shore,
erasing the wet footprints
again and again.
