As I sit on this mountain terrace my mind fades.
Over looking the scene of a million years of life that’s brought me to this
As the sun fades into the purple sky…
Leaving room for the moon that over looks the trees
Never even knowing I’m here...
Never seeing my face
Once again I see true beauty, but only behold with it my only eyes
Not feeling the peace it should bring
As my thoughts wonder around, till my ears ring
What has befallen me, callin’ me to the edge of the ….
So I can see forever
The forever never that holds me when I shake
Only long enough, so my mind won’t break…again
But when the comfort comes, only a moment away
I will still be here…only a’ lonely away
From the thoughts that brought me here
Here to think
But to what degree?...does it turn on me
When did I feel it for the time first?
Was it there, somewhere, near a driving ice burn that took my soul?
But gave it back. I fear I am sad to say
On the brink on the sands…of my broken bay
Walking so far I could not see the shore
Why would the thoughts of the ocean come to me now?
When the sea is over a thousand miles away
Maybe that’s where I left it…
Was I there the moment the sight mind?
I can’t recall, but I do now see blind
Ever never long alone this terrace tide
As the moonlight burns my tired eye
Leaving only a memory
