A Long Voyage

[cryingaugust]

its 4 o'clock
i still havn't found you
i have been crossing
the depths
searching for your soul

how have the rays
of the sun
chapped your lips
made you sick
to your skin

the ocean has worn
your face
it has pulled you
over the railing
you're not lost

time has passed
to late afternoon
im sure the boat
has circled you
a dozen times

it must be
a curse to my eyes
i still can't see you
when you see me
yell for me

i'll be looking for you
traveling the ocean
by night and day
i'll keep my ears open
listening for your voice
