Sands of Time

Sands of time

Falling in space

Never seeming to reach their destination

 

An eternal love

Grapping for freedom

In a cold uncaring cauldron

 

Time caught in a warp

Never seeming

To move forward

Holding them frozen

In a state of wanting

 

Two lost souls

Magnetically intertwined

Kept apart

By the apathy of the clock

 

Distorted measure

Holding them hostage

Until the grains fall

Through the oppressive ooze

As they keep pulling against

The tyrannical forces

That keep them distant

 

And the longing for the day

Grows ever stronger

Ever dynamic

So vigorous in nature

That it sweeps them away

 

To a place where they belong

Together in perfection

Across the metaphysical plane

Until the time comes
