Poetic Perspective (part 11) - Sand In A Hour Glass

SAND IN A HOUR GLASS
Time passes away never to return

Unlike sand in an hourglass, it can never be flipped upside down and reversed

A curse
That mankind must always live life forward

Any regrets, all mistakes, every remorse he may feel -stays

Whether it’s valid or not, it shapes his future, his actions, and our future thoughts

As we age we get frailer

Weaker, sicker, rigid, and desensitized

To the scenes in front of us which have shaped our very lives

Many we love -pass away in front of our eyes

Either through disease, accidents, natural causes, or suicides

Many hearts break, too much emotional trauma

How can you turn away from thoughts and ideas that haunt you?

Broken dreams, wrong career, many avoidable misadventures

Negative friends, abusive relationships, and ideas that have failed

Reality is built to break you

The media circulates utter nonsense

Don’t let it consume you
Become you

Or shape you
It’s nothing but propaganda and lies

Time is precious even thought it passes us by

Use it to your advantage and never watch the good inside you bleed out and die

Use time wisely, learning from mistakes, always ready to smile
