there was a crystal house above the sand
the sea lived close to the window
and at night the tide invaded the land

the glimmering floor reflected the moon
creating whirling shadows on the ceiling
in a january's cold and dark afternoon

the waves were looking for a girl,
but she was not found
in the middle of the broken crystals
shattered on the ground

the water didn't know
that the girl was inside,
in each photo,
and in each goodbye

there was no one
for the shiny fragments to cut
because the past was shaped as a gun,
its memories like a door that was shut
