Echoes

So won't you come and sit by me
Let me write a few lines for you
And hold your hand to wipe those hurts
As I softly hum our hearts' tunes
And let me erase the marks in sand
The stories that have kept you back
I'll listen to each and every one
Until all salt washes from your eyes
As all our time will fly away
The moments will be few and far
A single life, shorter than time
Will lay a track deep, indelible
Together a story will be written
Minute details that only our hearts recall
But every echo will live as they always have
For souls that see what others may not...
