Somewhere

[Bill Kamen]

I drift across a secluded beach. 

I feel the sand underneath my feet. 

Impressions of the past fading 

from a turning tide.

 

I catch a fragrance in the air, 

i stop to look in wonder 

as it captivates my senses

with serenity.

 

I close my eyes, 

and see you on that beach

swaying to the sound of the waves.

 

A brief vision of all that was  beautiful

is but a memory.

 

Somewhere

 

Somewhere where love began

Somewhere where love blossomed 

 

Somewhere only we know 

 

I came across a frail beach pea 

once blossoming binding the sand.

Is this the spot our hearts blossomed 

binding our love? 

 

Adrift in the shallows 

of a changing tide,

time ages, understanding deepens

and beauty reveals in different forms.

 

Visions of what we shared,

once blowing in with the sea breeze,

now, nothing more than broken shells

scattered in the sand.

 

 

Let’s go back to those moments of magic

to talk about it and put the broken pieces

back together to complete our voyage.

 

 

Somewhere 

 

Somewhere where love began 

Somewhere where love blossomed 

 

Somewhere only we know

 

Somewhere only we know
