I see scattered grains, endless waves Winds smooth away imprinted memories Scenes ever changing, contours deceiving Covering the scars of what has been But maybe in the vast expanse of emptiness You’re like a flower in the sand Immortalized for all time So precious in my mind Where ravages can’t tear and time won’t fade Forever you remain my beloved treasure I see settled dust, tarnished days Stains coat the very colors they create Suffering, decay, can’t touch your soul You learned to form a pearl from pain And maybe in an ocean depth of nothingness You’re like a jewel in the sand Immortalized for all time So precious in my mind Where ravages can’t tear and time won’t fade Forever you remain my beloved treasure .... Immortalized for all time So precious in my mind Where ravages can’t tear and time won’t fade Forever you remain Immortalized for all time So precious in my mind Through ruins of despair, and hope’s decay Forever you remain my beloved treasure
