Gentle Waves

Hollow promises

Wash upon my shores

Filled with pain

And never remorse

Looking out towards gentle waves

The only ornament, on a thousand graves

All unmarked, only God know where

No words or songs, can diminish my fear

For the unknown waiting at my door

The enemies I’ve never seen before

The multitude of lies, accepted as truth

And this unkempt world,

we passed to our youth
