Crystal's In The Sand Poem by Spiritwind Wood

Crystal's In The Sand

Rating: 5.0


See the lonely man
sitting out there alone
stuck inside a memory
watching the storm roll on in
bringing down the rain
tears from yesterday

He hides behind his pain
wondering if it will always be the same
here in lifes little game
that we all have to play
he cries out her name

Feeling like there is no more love to give
when the woman he loved so much in time
still holds it all here in her hand
like crystal's in the sand

He thinks of only one reason
that makes him want to live
while time changes with the season
he tries to keep his head high
knowing somehow he has to try
like a hammer to a stone
every angel wants to fly
fly on home
I'll meet you again

Now he see's the setting sun
a face of such a beautiful one
shining like a rainbow in the sky
he knows her love will never die
even now that she's gone
her love keeps him moving on

a sad and sentimental poem that is beautiful and eloquently written. it has a solid steady flow to it and the emotions are written so well you can feel them as you are reading. some very vivid and moving lines: Feeling like there is no more love to give when the woman he loved so much in time still holds it all here in her hand like crystal's in the sand Like time kept by an hourglass Grain of sand by grain falls It falls slow, So slow i can see each piece of sand as original as a snowflake Piece by piece they pile atop of each other making it's own small dune inside of the glass It falls so quickly, So quickly all i can discern is a soft swishing stream One grain out of place falling at the right speed makes the mound of sand suddenly shift as if diplaced by the strong desert wind Time is what consumes me now In the wake of your abcense I am inside of the hourglass Being slowly consumed by the sands Great poem my friend. keep writing.10+++ Jen

A sad poem that was beautifully expressed & written with a nice flow to it too. Thanks for sharing. one typo -'ctystasl'-'crystals' errors-'must to fly'-should be either 'wants to fly' or 'has to fly' Ravensong
