My Love is Lost at Sea

When I think of you at night

While I am sitting near the pond

Your beautiful face, it haunts me

Your hair mere sparkling blonde

I think of the promise you made me

In the earlier of years

One promise you said you would keep

Throughout the sorrow and the tears

You made that promise at night

While we were sitting on the sea

You said you would love me forever

And never stray away from me

But some promises are broken

Because some can never last

And this one in particular

Was broken clear and fast

We were sailing on a boat that evening

On the night you proudly proposed

But a storm hit us unexpectedly

And severe harsh weather arose

There was nothing we could do to stop it

Nothing to do or say

So we held each other tightly

To make sure we did not stray

But Mother Nature was stronger

Instead of two human beings at rest

She worked harder and harder to prove

She is the one and only best

She flung our boat into the water

While I struggled to the surface for breath

And searched for my love that I did not see

Trying to forestall my death

I did not see my love

I did not hear his call

I was searching for a man

That I loved most of all

Fifteen days passed by

After that tragic day

I received a call that morning

Telling me you are not here to stay

They said you died that night

Filling your lungs with death

The death is described as water

That ceased your one last breath

It feels like eons that passed by

Yet it has only been three years

It still feels like a long time

Through the sorrow and the tears

You broke that promise you made me

That dreadful, drastic night

But my love for you is endless

For you my heart shines alight
