Lyrics In A Bottle

The oceans torrent takes it there,
 my writing mingles with open water.
Hope won't diminish the essence of you, 
still you are kept from washing up onto the shore.
Mercilessness it was keen in keeping you from me,
I prayed my warmth would replace the cold.
Your breath has ceased but love won't vacate,
forever the words I wrote will linger through death. 
 The shipwreck of your feat won't lay dormant through time,
from the shore I'd cast it, the written journey of you and I.
My lyrics have secured a place that crosses beyond,
 Its song echoes music through the depths
as the waves take my chorus to where you rest.
I stand on the sand and wave them out of sight,
as the Ocean's tune hums my final goodbye.
