An Element of Life

Buried ships
Face the sea
With the hurting tempation
of peace,
Calling out for
Those good eyes
That arn't found

Only a breeze
Leaves Nothing in place,
Allowing the sand
To trickle its course
Down among all possibilities,
Touching the glass
And buried in place

For a seconds dissolve
And a moment is lost

Adversities prevail
With the rushing sand
Holding down
The sorrows 
And frustrations

All trembles
With uncertain
Waves of remorse
As every step
Lays a mark upon the deck

Love is left to shrivel
Friends remain unnamed
And life itself erases

All at a steady pace
Evening out the horizantal blue
From where no answer returns
