By the Sea

By the sea, I walked
To clear my head
To watch the waves
To gather my thoughts

By the sea, I thought of home
How I was raised
How I was loved
How I will live

By the sea, I thought of love
What it means to me
What it is to be loved
What people do for love

By the sea, I thought of life
Why people try to be better
Why we search for that something
Why we fear death

By the sea, I thought of death
Wonder why there are those who come to pass
Wonder when will be my last breath
Wonder if someone will care

By the sea, I realized
Nothing is will stay as it is
Nothing in the world will not wither
Nothing can withstand time
