Realization

A full moon shines across the sea,
As I begin to wonder, now I see,
I see clearer than ever before,
That you don't want me anymore.

So slowly I set sail,
Reversing as I retreat,
Drowning my sorrows in ale,
I begin to accept defeat..

Dawn rises with a thick mist,
A fog of realization,
That reminds me of when we kissed,
And how it was idealization.
