“ADRIFT”
What is a sea that has no shore,
Where it’s weary waves can rest?
What is a night that has no stars,
Where the seas and skies caress?
What is a sun that fails to shine?
Just a heaven void of soul.
What is a dream that has no theme?
Just a mind that lacks a goal.
What is a love that can’t be shared,
When love is based on two.?
Lost and alone, lord without throne,
Am i when without you.
Leon Russell Garrett
