Pyramids Of Sand Poem by Richard Lam

Pyramids Of Sand



I pretended
I lied
I brushed aside
Thinking
That I could go on
Living
Doing the things I liked
As if every day was fine
Like scary dreams that eventually stop coming at night
I insisted
Everything would be alright
Yet
I was only hurting myself
More badly
In more places than I could tell
Because when my pyramids of sand really fell
And the last of shells
Had lost its spell
It felt like hell
