In Our Hands

In Our Hands

A Poem by Matthew James Ginn

Its our Hope
the many destines of dreams
the realities of old
The conflicting footholds we hope to achieve.

Tears of rain
the river 
that hides the pain
the small feeble statue
which we build 
Our lives cast like stone
The work of Our hands

Life grown like a flower
Delicate in view
Soft in touch
The truth indeed hurts
Only the few 
It hurts as much

In our hands 
craftsmanship 
is an art
In our hands Life is but a sculpture
In Our hands life is but a song
Its in our hands, in our hands

The soft bittersweet of humanity
Nibbles at our core
 Adore the healing passion of love
With its hands that shape
It was our hands
But love has shaped us all the more.

This poem is practically saying life is in our hands, and our life is what we make of it right?
Very different way of saying that, if that's what the meaning is.
I liked it though, very deep and meaningful, also insightful.
Keep writing :)
