Tidal

YouA faun in twilightImmaculate perfectionIA god in half-lightA hero in a playPale blue sceneryFleeting moments passing byDots and anagramsIn the sands of time and the windUsA monument of sand toDefy the oddsUsA rampart made of dreamsThat would not lastSo tired without youThe sultry heat of summers goneMelted hands of timeAn enigmatic poem on our skinsWith each changing of the tidesWe renewed a fragile bondWe were blessed and we were cursedA gush of water swept awayAll we swore and all we saidIndelibly, unspoken spellsUnbroken hours slowly passedWe areGhost and shadows straining to be heardWe areLike ships and waifs waiting for the tideWe areSurrendered to the heat, surrendered to the waitWe areLong gone with the windListless summer daysWithout care of where to goComing back to meTinted moments of our luckThough we were too weakWished to pause the restless clocksTo hold life for a whileThe peal of bells above the rain(Made it end)A gush of water swept awayAll we swore and all we saidIndelibly, unspoken spellsUnbroken hours slowly passedWe areAching whispers, windswept memoriesWe areLike birds in flight sleeping on the stormsWe areNot Daphnis or not Chloe anymoreWe areLong gone with the tide
