by Cara
A peaceful stroll along the beach, feet sinking in the sand
Waves meet the shoreline, as we cruise hand in hand
Sun sets behind the clouds, making for a perfect scene
Image in our background adds to our lovers pristine
Time loses its meaning, as the minutes transform to hours
Your glance makes my heart fluctuate, no love is like ours
The sky completely darkens, but afraid I needn't be
As I couldn't feel more secure, being my love's abductee
Whispers of forever, promised with a passionate embrace
Your rough skin caresses mine as our fingers interlace
My eyes meet yours and it's as though my puzzle is complete
All the pieces click together, with you finishing my heart's beat
This memory will always remain, but my mind is done pretending
The flat green line on the screen is telling me your road is ending
A single tear escapes my eyes, landing on your now cold skin
Your hand that I hold is limp and I silently break within.
