forgive and forget,
or all that's in between which drifts by the wayside-- the seaside-- the tumbling shore. i watched my best friend become best friends with the sunset on the sand, where liars and dreamers spend their days all tossed up-- washed up-- soaked in their own tears. she told me i'll never leave you as she took long steps back, her stolen grains of contempt-- of fire and love. i fell in love with her once, in the ocean of pillows, of skin and heavy blankets. i fell in love with a ghost, who drifted out to sea on the sails of forgiveness. |
