Still We Are Like Sand

Posted by gigigriffis under poetry

However hard we try, still we are like sand.

I couldn’t hold you, hold on to you–

If I did want to, if I didn’t want to.

Eventually, you’re out of pocket.

Whatever I may want, still we are costumes.

Play acting when I wasn’t play acting;

Covered when I was so very naked.

Leaves come and go just as quickly.

Hereafter may I know that still I am a map:

To Always Never, Never Always–

Something to look at when you’re lost.

Because some things are not.
