I seek you like the ocean seeks the shore. Gently but relentlessly and hopelessly for I know you’ll always send me away.

I seek you in a crowd, in a movie, across the supermarket aisles.

I seek the familiar mouth. I remember kissing while I looked at your closed eyes and the crease of your lips.

Life without you I have drifted. Over continents and a hundred songs

Life without you I have wondered. Would our plans ever have come to be.

Life without you I have battled, questioned, raged.

Life without you I have accepted. Our paths refused to re-entwine.
