Sandcastles
I danced all night As sandcastles slowly returned to the sea A tale of you and me Once I was the next best thing Now I slowly retreat to the sea To the abyss of solitude Crashing waves of grief Yet my relief’s in release King of my own nights again Out of sorts Out of orbits Of traitors disguised as lovers Streaking across my sky Only to leave me in the dark once more But it’s in the shadows that I thrive Dancing until the light of dawn Threatens my safety I retreat once more Until nightfall I fell Under your spell Now your power’s no more How does it feel to fall from beloved To reviled ? The sands of fate beguiled Two souls to intertwine Now the love has faded And the tapestry’s all mine To display Or to hide
