Message In A Bottle

I'll say goodbye before you go

there's something i want you to know

Although the many failed to show

there were the few who loved you so

Through dynasties

forgotten wars

since time began you swam these shores

You are the living memory but soon you won't be anymore

A simple prayer before you leave

I pen this message lovingly

And I pray these words will reach your heart as l cast this bottle to the sea

The final hour is at our door

no time to change this anymore

Still I wish my son could know a world as l have known in times before

The world will never be the same

no living thing will share your name

Just memoirs written in shifting sands upon the shore. forever more

I'll say goodbye before you go

there's something I want you to know

Although the many failed to show

there were the few who loved you so
