Eyes wide

lossnaturemusictimeloveidentity

Eyes wide

Looking for miracles

Supplicants

In search of a truth

Missing in action

Dreamers

Lost in the moment

Unsatisfied

Schemers crying foul

Drinking alone

Sad eyed

Strangers in lamplight

Lonely hearts

Waiting at tables

Reading messages

Porcelain rejects

With hairline cracks

Receding

As laughter lines

Wrinkle a worrier

Prematurely

Old lupines rage

Against the wind

Fighting

A lost cause

Life is an ocean

At high tide

As it ebbs

Erosion defeats

Erstwhile defence

Rinsing away

Everything

Under the sun

Eventually.
