I press my ear to the waves,

Listening for a voice that fades.

Tides come, tides go,

Unspoken words drift below.

Midnight sea, carry my heart,

Like the wind, like a dream torn apart.

Love and longing, joy and sorrow,

All dissolve into AO.

Moonlight shivers on the tide,

Memories lost in the rise and fall.

Fingers reach, but touch the void,

Echoes slipping far beyond.

Shadows dance, whisper and fade,

Waves return, then slip away.

Love that lingers, love unknown,

Still drifts upon AO.

Mist hides the distant shore,

Yet your voice lingers more.

Tears sink into the deep,

Dreams scatter on the breeze.

A final glance, a love once whole,

Now sleeps in AO’s hold.
