I was very lucky to collaborate with Philleann @philleann: on such a beautiful song. 
Peter @user-264930040 collaborated on the lyrics. 

The Glimmering Shore

They married in haste on a bright winter’s day 
Knowing the next tide would sail him away 
But he pledged his return come the warmth of the May
 And to wait for him there on the glimmering shore

High masted whaler, fading from view 
Beyond her horizon of shimmering blue 
Steeling her heart, through tearful adieu 
Set to wait for her love by that glimmering shore

May’s softness as swallows came dancing on air 
July blessed her life with his daughter so fair 
Then autumn winds rising, whispering despair 
While she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Darklings of winter, snow blankets the sand.
 Earth forged to ice, life stripped from the land. 
Daily returning, the horizon to scan 
To wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Weeks swelled to months that folded to years
 Hope’s light expiring, extinguished by fears 
And the salty sea roared and it crashed like her tears
As she waits for her love on that glimmering shore

Like a ship gripped by tempest ne’er to break free
 Her heart imprisoned on a turbulent sea. 
No lighthouse of guidance to lead her to lee. 
She'd wait for her love on that glimmering shore

Hope everyone has a kick ass New Year full of hope joy and peace.

Why are you leaving so soon
Haven’t you had a good time too?
So why did-you -refuse?

Heading down- the wrong way trail
Given up the smokes to the garbage pail
They hammered- in the last nail

Breathing out like we do
You’d think we’d care- more about you
admiring the way you grew

Everybody calls when they’re having trouble
Venus flytrap/stuck in molasses
Cautious walking
Cautious walking

Peeking around the corner in fear
Morning dew like a mourning tear
Cautious walking
Cautious Walking

Never been down to the sacred ground
Gearing up now for the weight the pounds
Of souls and cheers
Of souls and cheers
Holding  hands with you 
My lovely dear
My lovely dear

We were   bothering the rain gods
Born alive in sprouting pods
Posing in a wedding gown
Remembering our small town
Basil was up and growing
Toddlers were nurturing
And taking in and learning
 Like a vacuous sponge
Like a waterspout of love

Of souls and cheers
Of souls and cheers
Holding hands with you 
My lovely dear
My lovely dear

Anything more than what you can give?
Could have been more but you just can't share
Could have been more but you just can't feel but sad.

Another fab U lous genre bending song by @candyside-arcade.  Come join the sing-a-long-ling.

Too clever to seize
You'll never believe
Forever you'll freeze
Broken Bridges

Don't try to stake 
Wise guy, you take 
goodbye, forsake 
BB

You may point to fractured beams
Disjointed manufactured schemes
Those that belong declare their plans
Can anyone repair the span of BB

Just don't police
they'll break the peace
You, won't release

everything fades to grey
since you're gone
my silent film tries to go on
since you're gone
i got no clue where i belong
since you're gone
i am a figurine, a wounded toon
i slowly fade to grey

i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon

i feel like losing my mind
since you're gone
the doctor says "those pills are fine
don't waste your time, get a move on!"
i gotta get away
before i'm lost in grey

i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon

i hide myself in grey
i lose myself in my cocoon
i slowly fade to grey
i gotta get out of here soon
i slowly fade to grey
i feel like losing my mind
since you're gone
i gotta get away
