Take A Pebble

  • Just take a pebble and cast it to the sea
    Then watch the ripples that unfold into me
    My face spill so gently into your eyes
    Disturbing the waters of our lives

    Shreads of our memories are lying on your grass
    Wounded words of laughter are graveyards of the past
    Photographs are grey and torn, scattered in your fields
    Letters of your memories are not real

    Well, sadness on your shoulders like a wornout overcoat
    In pockets creased and tattered hang the rags of your hope
    The daybreak is your midnight, the colours have all died
    Disturbing the waters of our lives,
    Of our lives, lives, lives Writer/s: GREGORY LAKE
