SALVATION UPON MY SHORE
Everywhere that I look I see nothing but grey clouds
Gathering up a storm
But here I stand upon an unknown shore
Walking through life’s stores
Wondering what went so wrong
To be upon this distant shore
You loved me adored me
This was meant to be
A lifetime of eternity
I felt so confused
Never knowing what you needed from me
At times feeling like I need to be free
Just to be me
I remember where and when we met
Just like this place, but on another shore
We had only eyes for each other
The laughter and the tears
Throughout the years
But now that has all gone
I am so unsure.
I think of all the fun we had
I can’t bear to think about it, it just makes me sad
I still see your face,
Which I cannot erase,
I walk along this shore
I think about you time and time again
How each and every day you said my name
And now I feel such pain
That I won’t hear you say my name ever again
I just feel so insane…….
As I walk along this shore
I know now it is too late
Not one moment living in regret
With the time spent
With you
My salvation upon this shore
With sweet memories in store
For ever more
