Ampersand
He flies kites as she builds castles in the sand
A tower falls, he bends to lend a hand
Hours pass, the tide rolls back, and soon their castles flat
Leaving one lopsided plastic flag
On the spot, he starts to jot their names down with a branch
And with a smile she adds an ampersand
As they walk away her family beckons from the van
And she leaves him with one last fleeting glance
As spirits swell, the wedding bells
sing, 'la-da-de-da-da-dai'
A tear falls from her father's eye
He says, 'live like you'll be gone tomorrow
love with all your might
and all the rest will come in time.'
He lies fast asleep
She sits there by his side
A tissue box sits bare
Her tear ducts dry
A nearby clock is ticking towards

an early morning sky
and it won't stop no matter how she tries
Across the room a TV's selling
things she'd never buy
Without the sound it all looks like
some silly pantomime
And all at once she feels like this is
someone else's life
as if she's looking in from the outside
We seldom know it's time to go
Until we close our eyes
But everybody goes and that's no surprise
The world it turns
The fire burns
And we can only try
to make the best of our time
