Off We Sail To Where?

Info

My mind is filled with your memories

As I bid my farewell

I never knew that this much

I kept pieces of you in every corner of my mind


The mundane days you changed

You bring me into another world

Together we journey the seven seas

Hand in hand, we sail through the waves


We laugh

We cry

We fall in love

We are happy


You caressed my wounded heart

Bandaged it with your warmth

Every night you sing me a song

A song of love and promises


We never knew then

That we are sailing to a different course

We might have diverted from our supposed stop

We turned to sail to our goodbyes


It all started with small currents

We got so scared, fear drove out faith

Until we can no longer withstand 

Even the slightest waves


Now, I'll let you go with the wind

Your wordless departure

Spoke a million words

Carried by the quiet breeze of the night


The only thing you left

Is your song of love and promises

Turned into a hymn of despair and broken vows

No longer brings dreams, but nightmares and tears


That sad song

Now I sing to you

I hope you hear my heart

Hidden, screaming in every note


On your journey, may this song be your company

May the message it conveys reach your frozen heart

May the fire melt the ice

Until you meet your new flame


I love you, still

Though, we have ended

Go on your way

I'll stay here until you safely reach the bay
