Lost at Sea

we were set adrift,
lost amidst seas of long-forgotten memories
and far-off dreams of a paradise
that never was
for somewhere among the
letters-sent-too-late
and the calls-that-never-came
we found ourselves spiraling
in a downwards descent --
falling e n d l e s s l y
as the ground gave out from
beneath our feet
gravity swallowed us whole
and took away your wings
[we wished to fly,
but were claimed by the sea --
just another piece of flotsam]
