so you want to stop the tide


so you want to stop the tide

so you want to stop the tide
from going out and coming in
you want it just there where you
remember that summer
you want the driftwood fire and
the music and the laughter
the sun always just setting
and the stars just coming out
the marram grass spiking
riggling giggles and soft warm sand
holding kisses until the sea broke
the spell that never broke that summer
did it conspire to flat-world the karma
sultry wined eyes for each other and 
the whole wide world peeping over the horizons
of whispered i love you i love you 
down all the days that suddenly ended 
although they promised promised 
promised they would never end
do you remember
