![]() Fallen sandA Poem by SorenIt was a time of innocence of great expectations, when God still existed And we believed in princesses and frogs turned into princes A time when everything was simple, When we trusted in promises, loyalty and true love We were young and the morning of life had just begun Everything was a game, full of dreams and imagination Nothing impossible on that outstretched road to our enchanted destination So with a magical belief, hand in hand we built our castles, And searched the sand for promised buried treasure Then with time came the little lies of life that broke the rules of the game Building barriers between us of fears, tears, anger, strife and blame The game became war full of agony and pain A once bright beach became a dark storm swept coast Whose waves did roar up the shore And in the dark, as we ran, we tripped and fell over those castles of sand And when I looked you were no more Now my hair's gone gray, and my eyesight has grown dim So from time to time, I close my eyes going back to that place sublime Where all wishes came true and all things were believed in Then on that enchanted beach you come to me and now I see You’re the lost princess I’ve searched for, so long And the lies have become nothing more than weakness and folly of youth, As we played our childish games on that magical shore The agony and pain nothing more than the rocks and stones upon which true love is built And in my mind, we still play in the ocean spray, in that fanciful land And nothing else matters but that moment in time when you held my hand
