Walk the beach with me Feel the sand between your toes The warm waves lap at our feet The waters caress like a the hands of a thousand lovers The water green against a blue sky The sand as white as sugar The sunshine in your hair The soft touch of my hand in yours The wind in our hair The adventures we share The love and passion in your touch The power of unbridled emotion Our footprints wash away with the tide Does this mean we never walked there? Or does it mean that our love never was? It means that the world and life go on Two lovers meet with a common sadness Two dreamers find dreams in plastic and glass and the reality of love is not what they sought Only the dream, through the rays of a burning CRT The flowers grow wilted and sparse The sound of the laughter fades But the memories, the pain, the sadness, the guilt grow and become a barrier which cannot be dismissed The world does not exist beyond the walls I've built My view is filtered through plastic and glass Passion and breathless love await in cyberspace Dreams and emotions too powerful to understand Love is unreachable for those too frightened of a world not plastic and glass. |
