IN PEACEFUL DAYS

Towards the end of all her memories
She can see you standing by the reef
With a look that says you are not there
Beyond a cloud of dark despair

She does not leave--she cannot move
Although the others don't approve
She hears that song inside her head
It whispers all the things you said

The road between them is not weak
It shields them from their thoughts so bleak
She knows she'll search for you bereft
And realize you never left
