1. THE INVARIANT

I watched you drift away,
The good times remain as happy memories.
It’s all I need, it's how it should stay.
Your blood washed up on the shore.

Rejected by the oceans,
Once more rejected by me.
Your words speak of remorse.
The look across your face reveals more to me than your words.
You wallow in your glory as if nothing ever happened.
Congratulations are in order, but do you expect me to care?

I watched you drift away, the ocean has spoken.
The tides concluded our amity,
And it’ll never be the same.

My sorrow is fading,
These scars will remain as momentos of my pain.
Echoes of the past cut through you.

Rejection eclipses your light.
This cannot be undone.

I watched you drift away,
The ocean has spoken.
The tides concluded our amity.
My sorrow is fading.
These scars will remain as momentos of my pain.
This will never be the same, these scars will remain.
