The bottle

Onterio T Pearson 1984 (United States)



He wrote a letter, stuffed it in a bottle and tossed it out to sea.....Saying to whom it may concern.. followed by.... for only your eyes to see. I've been having trouble finding love, or maybe its just me.
But honestly I been losing sleep everynight... besides i can only find her... in my dreams. I mean the one that i adore. So, if my answers in the wind; then i'll lead my question to the shore. And, im still waiting for the bottle, with every wave in the wake. But if love will find me... am i making a mistake?
