EARLY DEPARTURES...
The sea roared in anger when
Β youΒ died Helen
I know this
I sat on the dunes...
Later...after the funeral andΒ it's
cheesy song
Disrespectful I know, hell..
The whole day was wrong
I couldn't find you...
Not in the faces, not in the
coffin
Not in the prayers or the
wreath
It was all disconnected, off
kilter
I saw only my grief
I left early, came to the beach
Sat in the sand dunes, to weep
Dog walkers, joggers
Old men walking the prom
A world seen through prisms
Of a stunning starkΒ wrong
The sea rolled out
The sea rolled in
The seagulls screeched
their soulless din
I turned to you for comfort
But of course, you weren't
there
The sea kept on rolling
The wind whipped my hair
I txt you then, in heaven
Or wherever you were
I was crying so hard
I couldn't see through myΒ
tears
I txt that I missed you
But you didn't reply
And I stupidly wondered
If txt's could break through
the sky...
The sea roared...
I roared too...Β
