Beach at Sunset

As the sun sets on this darkening sea
I wonder how these changes took hold of me
The ships in the distance bring angels to mind
Insouciant reminders of a time without time

Ensconced in the air is the love that I lost
The tumult behind, I feel only the cost
A gull sings to brothers who winnow and glide
Moments to the horizon, the day that has died

Another dawn coming, sleep a tunnel to then
A channel to take me until time can bend
The water, the water, let it run through my soul
This and memory a balm that protect me from cold
