Forever Paused

I'm calling for the sea, but I'm too far along the shore.
Always looking around for something so much more.
Calling for music,
Looking for movement.
And I'm praying for you,
Yet you're someone I only once knew.
Then something takes me to a far away place.
Waves, reaching for a truth not so hard to face.
Reaching, then forgetting to reach.
Then remembering, tickling my toes, licking my feet.
Then I remember, you're someone I knew!
Birds flying away, beautiful, just like you.
A painted perfect sunset, paused.
And I let go of all the regret you caused.
Just you and me,
Nothing more, together, we've paid the final fee.
And then I stopped winning the wrong race,
As never became forever as it stopped in it's place.
The waves hardly reached,
Hardly forgot to reach,
And then they never reached, ever again.
