                                      The Sea

 

Today is the day
When the sun will not shine,
Love will not spark,
And life will turn to death.
For today is the end of the world.


I shall go on, yet the world will cease
For I am time itself.
I will miss the world and all of its beauty.
But most of all I will miss the sea.

 
The sea is a treasure you cannot replace.
The sea is comforting dancing in beauty and grace.
If the waves would crash,
And the tides would fall,
I would stop time itself
So the sea would last for all.
