The Trail - Farewell to L

You left a few things behind
You left gems glittering on the sand

And I trail along behind you
I see your footsteps

Listening to the sea
Holding gems in my hand

We sat kicking our legs off the edge of the dock
We watched the sun roll down into the bay

You chose another Way

I tracked you, but your steps

Passed into the ocean
I see you standing beside me

I see you in the trees, I feel you
Under me like a butterfly

Casting gems into the sea
And turning away
