Remember

I remember you asked me is this about you?

And my nerves twisted knots around walls I had made

As I watched my hands writing melodies stolen

from the hope I was hoping I’d feel for one day

I remember you told me there’s hope at the end

in the part I made up, reflections can’t be real

Where I let myself dream of life for a moment

Dream stars in the hands of the ocean my idol

Of freedom and peace and mysteries of power

In the strokes of each wave lacing words in the sand

pulling thoughts from my dreams of an ocean that lives

that loves and fights and breathes prayers without fears

I remember I wished with my heart on a star

that someday the lie could be a truth of its own

And I watched my hands forming words from the music

Oh the music I can finally write for you
