Within The Hour Glass

I was there when the words came. A time in life when the words were written as I was a soul examining life in a new light.

WITHIN THE HOURGLASS

 

Sometimes in life we walk away from love

It works that way

Hurts, lies, and compromise…taint our vision of love

When it does, the pain runs as deep as the soul

Causing us to examine where we stand in the light of love

Rays burning bright

Looking around, we follow the light

Leaving behind the darkness of pain

Tainted emotions of what we believe existed

With eyes fixed on a path leading to a destination unknown

Grasping hope with trembling hands

Glaring through…..tear filled eyes

Relying on inner strength and intuitions of what could be out there

Beyond the shore of destruction

Lies the stillness of the ocean

The ocean of loves unknown boundaries, currents, and depths

Seeing the horizon beyond its etched openness

Accompanied by questions unanswered, doubts, fears, hopes, and tears

Not able to understand…We grasp, hope, and yearn for what’s out there

In the daring openness, limitless horizon

Like the sands….uncounted

Sometimes we want knowledge of the sands of time

Past, present, and future

Our soul see yet not knowing something’s…some secrets

There

Answers locked asunder in the hope chest of life

Like a treasure buried deep under the ocean’s currents

The waves…………. the blue

At last…in time…sands falling through the hour glass

We can’t control its sifting……falling

It’s time is held by the hands of life

Minutes passing…..we can only wait

Living each moment like a treasured and unexpected gift

Unwrapping it with trembling hands and hearts

Accepting what is given to us

Seeing what really lies with the hour glass

Wisdom, trials, tests, love, patience, chances, gifts, pain, sorrow

Last, our hopes for a brighter tomorrow

Within the hour glass
