FlashbackA Poem by Poetry PigWhether you're fighting with a friend, a family member, girlfriend/boyfriend, think about what else you're destroying.
As I sit on this coast
I see flashbacks of that boat Right here it sank They say the lighthouse light never shown And the wind made each yell so faint No one really knows Because each of the men now sit On shadowed thrones Shedding salt tears every so often Only to be forgotten Never remembered Built of nothing but hope Could withstand the beating if the sea Except the crew never made it home This vessel now sits alone On the bottom of the ocean Next to this cliff side Where I've sat every night Thinking to myself If I was there to shine that light Instead of with you and our fight Those men would still be alive Maybe I can go back in time To change the mistakes I've made That ship would sail away from these cliffs The hurt that was felt would never exist But here I sit on this coast Making a toast with the ghosts And we see flashbacks of that boat © 2014 Poetry Pig |
