Remembered

Crashing waves
Salty air
Lost souls
Searching the sky's for promises...
All but forgotten
Gentle wind
Sparkling stars
Like jewels in a crown
Gracing us with their beauty
Reflecting water
Shows us who we really are
Our futures, our pasts,
Our presents
All we wish to conceal...
Laid bare
Like scars upon the waves
Cold bleak secrets
that no one should know
Escaping deep caverns of memory...
To reign once more
Reminding us of pain...
Forgotten
Moons soft glare
Brings us back to life
Memory's retreat
And waves break...
Rushing by our feet
Nervous laughter
Hidden tears
We leave this reverie
To return to a world
Of fake smiles
And secrets...

...Reflections far behind...
