out beyond the breakers

out beyond the breakers –

where the sea is calm –

there is that place where earth meets sky.

in that space –

i’d like to be,

to see what angels see…

if only i could find a way –

to turn back time –

remove the darkness –

from the night.

see the light – your eyes –

feel the warmth – your smile –

i’d trade a thousand dreams…

but i know life must carry on,

and while i find you –

no longer in this place,

i know –

through faith –

you have flown past the horizon!

listen –

so soft –

the sound of angels wings.

and through the clouds,

strong ray of sunlight;

path of gold you walk upon.

sweet dreams –

my friend.

you will become –

fond memories –

etched oh so deeply in my heart –

forever!
