A struggle of a relationship. The woman tries everything to catch her partners attention. Unfortunately he is stubbornly unaware. And because of their mis-communication, they both end up tragic.
We stand still
Our bodies like magnets
He feels hope
She feels doubt
Being carved so deep with the bluntest knife
The knife had done no harm
Numbness haloed her body
Parallel to numbness brought by that afternoon line
She stands still
Slowly her body drifts off shore
He stood mounted on the sand
Watching as her body is enveloped
By the waves which they once danced in
He’s lost, lost in his own priorities
Lightening hits, thunder pounds
Afternoon storm rehearsing for the late-night show
He stands still
Caressing her hands delicately across his face
So passively he stood, unaware
Her hands begin to crumble
Falling to pieces her body left as crumbs
She joins the sand where his bare feet lay
Failure to keep balance, down on his knees
We lay still
He melts into the sand
Little crystals and pieces of rock
So passively she laid, aware
Ever so effortlessly the life being strained
He joins the sand where his body lay
Their bodies like magnets
