Dolphins Song

dolphins call across the ocean waves  
singing to lovers gone adrift  
searching for others left behind in murky waters  
that will never reveal the current flowing ever away  
and yet it seems all other currents speed from the vortex swirling all around  
never realizing the seas fill in behind from fresh water rivers  
while the blinders of broken hearts create pockets of loneliness even in water  
as deep as mountains that fall to the ocean floor  
where volcanos vomit blood and steam that turn paradise to Hell  
and when they crawled up onto the land to escape their pain  
it followed them like a slimey blob of parasites  
that grew legs just to remind us that love is as fleeting  
as the echoes of our songs that get drowned out in the plague of sound  
we once relied on to bring us back together when we separated  in the past  
and now we can't remember the sound of our love song when we called out to each other  
the harmony is split into solo voices off key and out of sync
