The Castle Built on Sand

The Castle Built on Sand

A Poem by Lucinda

I built a castle
upon another's foundation

Kissing,
   Missing 
      the final note of each song

Looking for where I belonged
  
 searching,
      soul quenching 
         the hands upon my breath

of life that has loved, 
   loved 'til the death
      each subtle breath

Breathing your tragedy
    within your words
        in my heart 

Love....
    'tis love undying?
          as I exhale and crumble 

this castle washed upon the sand......

I can relate to this - everything is built on sand, especially relationships!
