"A Precious Black Pearl"

I have lost who I am in the search of a desire
Attempting to attain the pleasure of that fire
My heart would love for that burning to continue
But it's not eternal it always changes venues

The elegance is genuine and trouble-free to admire
A magnetism that allures with might
The wonderful notions, they can make you feel dire
A paradoxical notion that deliver fright

The sun is setting on this day; there is no more time to fray
The ocean has taken its treasures away
Drowning every hope and dream away
No more time to search for faith
The black pearl has floated away
To the bottom where buried it will always lay

Point in time is gone, time to float away
Insistence to investigate, have passed
The hope once held now it deteriorates
The scream of victory is complete futility

How I coveted to attain that black pearl
I yearned to rescue it, to return to that bliss
The precious treasure, which I misguidedly hurled
Into that blue oceanic abyss, and now a black pearl I will miss

The sun is setting on this day; there is no more time to fray
The ocean has taken its treasures away
Drowning every hope and dream away
No more time to search for faith
The black pearl has floated away
To the bottom where buried it will always lay

Now I only have nostalgia, to feed my memory
Now I only evoke that fire, with my imagination
Beautiful it is, when you've experienced something beautiful.
It's unique when the notion leaves you,
With out the ability to speak or sleep or...
Forget the first moment of that resplendent pearl

I understand that the fireflies in my eyes
Was the sparkle of the splendor of the special prize

And it's only a memory
In my dreams I see, because...

The sun set on that day; there was no more time to fray
The ocean its treasures, it took away
Drowning every aspiration and ambition away
No more time to set the bait
The black pearl has indeed, floated away
To the bottom where buried it will lay

Forever misplaced...

Forever gone astray...
