Where Sand Becomes Teardrops

Where Sand Became Teardrops 

 

Is a place where time once started
Where love and tenderness once reigned
Where oneness was oneness
It was a time when passions met
Lust was mistaken for love
Where mistakes became blood of the future
Where promises were forgotten
A
s memories faded
With each gust of wind that swept through the ruins of our minds and hearts
I am leaving now as the rock that was once us has crumbled to
Where Sand Becomes Teardrops

It is baffling, Odin, how what once burned so brightly can be reduced to cold ashes. And no matter how you deal with it - forgiveness, forsaking the emotion, rising above it intellectually, prayer, 18 year old scotch - the scars remain towering, and the overwhelming contemplativeness of it always seems to cycle back with certain triggers. I can relate, and I appreciate the honesty. Peace ... richard
