Shores of Genesis

By With love_Crow

All that we had
Was lost to the tides of reason
But we were never logical
Were we?

The treasures of time
Are buried and long forgotten
History left unwritten
Does it exist now?

Can we pretend it does?
Probably not
We're just molecules spinning
In opposite directions

On two separate time lines
And centuries apart
When I put it this way
Are we still perfect?

Not in my eyes
And from staring in yours
We're on the same page
Of this tragic novel

Farewell then there Romeo
The night is still young
But the journey back home
Is a ways from here

And my feet carry me
To the shores of genesis
Waiting for an apocalypse
Treading on distant waters

    This has got to be a masterful "Dear John" letter, because that's what it sounds like. The oceanic simile was well applied and developed too, thanks.
