I saw you.

i saw you on the shore line of infinity
eyes glazed with star dust
watching time steal love
from the memory of the old
and the freedom of the young 

no vacancy in no mans' land
as boys wander its fields
lassos fly as desperate woman wain
from behind enemy lines
where have all the good men gone?

you sat patient
never wasting a knot on a lasso
because a boy always finds a way
to turn a lasso into a noose

i saw you
the starboard star dust
my ship was never bound for apathy
the courage to sail was found in your courage to sit 

so we danced 
on glass seas stealing times' loot
whispering on the sunrise
tying our hands with the rope
forgetting the white caps 

We lived in the moment, as if the moment was forever.
