The ocean sighs like a tired old friend
Waves pulling secrets they’ll never send
A cold breeze speaks in riddles
Soft and low
Seagulls scream where silence used to play
They chase the horizon
Then fly away
Do they know what’s waiting
Do they stay or stray
Your voice lingers like salt in the air
Heavy like the weight of something unfair
I trace your steps where the sand forgot
The tide’s a thief
It never stops to plead
Taking what it wants
Leaving what it needs
Seagulls scream where silence used to play
They chase the horizon
Then fly away
Do they know what’s waiting
Do they stay or stray
A sail on the edge of the world
Folds and unfolds
A map of the lost
Every wave a question
Every ripple a cost
