The Cardiologist's Sea



We sailed our love out, into the ocean
Of life and we fought through the waves
We fought against the thought, against the notion
That we would dig each other’s graves

So when you fell overboard and called for me
To save you from the fate that loomed
I found I could not reach you through the sea
Of water between us, I found we were doomed

The roiling, boiling waves of this world
Took you from me, and I couldn’t save you
I’m sorry, I wanted to - but my sails unfurled
And I was blown far away too

Stay strong, find your way
I hope we meet again someday
I never intended for us to end this way
I hope someday we can both say
That though the waters dark and gray
Pulled us each away
We found a life we needed and wanted
And the love that we shared never left us haunted
