The Silver Shore

It’s time to wake up to a dream

As we gaze at the same moon
Do you feel a shiver like I do?
Rippling from head to toe
Our souls brushing shoulders
From opposite coasts

Are you alone like me or
Laying beside another,
Looking through the curtains, wondering
“Is this it?”

Meet me halfway
To dance along the silver shore
Finally letting the frigid tide
Shock you back to life

This time, you’ll awaken
In that hazy dream, lips meeting
Where we left off
Leaving the nightmare behind

Until then, my daydreams linger
To a past life
Where we waited, patiently
For the stars to align
Now is our time
