Time, a Distant Shore

The hardest, yet the smartest

Is to admit you’ve made a mistake

Wishing you could reverse and erase action done

Voices spoken, able to vanish, a wish

Only in torment, swirling thoughts create hate

Frustration of choices made, ideas proving to be false

A virus of spirit eats the soul for every meal, future born

Sadness spills with the eyes endeavoring for light

To grasp and to hold a moment, once more

Sailing on, sail on, sails furled with no wind

No prayer willing to replace the hand that would aid

If only for second, having it back would be bliss

Too late, later on, late upon an evenings song

A world turning, ceaselessly

The end is never the end

Only a story left to be written

 

The faithful and the honest shall stay on

Gaze upon the sea, for sails will appear

 The end is but a beginning

Yet to be given life by the breath of God

 

Journey on, walk on, crawling the days

For that is the wish, of a candle still lit

Upon destiny’s white sill

Almost like the waves cresting and breaking upon the shoreline. Softly in and washes away, that which just returns, till the current decides, allowing for travel forward. The peace found in the ending of this piece
"Journey on, walk one, crawling the days

Upon destiny's white sill"
A symbol of found peace and cleansing. At least that's what I feel. :)

Time breathes around us, lives in, among, away, parallel to us.

Another thought provoking poem. Admiting to being wrong is never easy since some words and/or actions can never be erased. What a fabulous line, "A virus of spirit eats the soul for every meal"! Love this!
