If My Sand Castle Drowns, Can I Live With You…?

(everybody needs somebody...)



spoken with the lisp of a child…
one of those universal truths
we sometimes miss...

lost in emptiness,
building ephemeral dreams
without concrete foundations

drifting unfettered,
but unsecured—
and yes, there is a difference…

a life alone is a life
a life entwined is a miracle

to me

I speak for myself
and not for you

for no one has the right
to dictate your reality

but if my castle wanders
too close to the sea
unnoticed

and dissolves into
bits of shapeless sand…

will you extend to
me a lifeline?

will you hold out
your hand?

Since death of hubby Aug 17 07 I feel I don't want anyone else in my life. He was my 2nd husband and very much different from the lst and a loving and caring person for me to live with. Memories of him are with me in spirit and I cannot see myself finding another like him to satisfy my as he did. He was an unusual and all mine person. Great personality, laughter, and loved people.

a life alone is a life
a life entwined is a miracle
