996 where no boat will come to pick you up

996  where no boat will come to pick you up

there have been only a few springs

when I missed the chance to pick flowers

in the garden to offer at the grave

Where we buried a part of us together

When we failed

To keep the lamp burning

In the night

So that ships could find their moorings

Anchor were dropped at the place

where no boat will come to pick you up

and you will go back

I have been used by the

Lighthouse guard

As the wick in the lamp

Whenever it rains

Tears from the leaking roof

He collects it and puts in the lamp

And I burn

To ensure that no other ships looses its way
