Lost To You

Roses climb the wall outside your room
Sweet scent floats through the window
Reminding you of me and what you’ve lost

The satin covered sheets upon which you lay
Softness beyond compare
Reminding you of me and what you’ve lost

The wild waves crash against your shore
Untamed, implacable, relentlessly pounding
Reminding you of me and what you’ve lost

A free spirit flows forever young
Untethered
Without restraint
Unencumbered
Free to be
yet
Lost to you
