Sandy Memories?

Haha, don't mind the title; weird I know. Today, stayed back in school for Bible Knowledge. Covered Luke 18. There was the verse "It is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle". The teacher suddenly spoke about not gripping too hard onto things in life as they're temporary and to put God first. So this poem I wrote two years ago suddenly came back. Haha,those were the days la, zaman ke-emo-an haha.

Sandy Memories

Grip hard on the sand,

It slips away,

Cling lightly,

It sweeps away.

Let go your hands,

Watch it dance with the wind,

Into memories of you and me,

Wiping me dry of my tears,

Just with the picture of the past.

The window of the past opens,

To let me slip beyond time,

But it only creates a barrier of the present,

For the future is waiting,

For past enmities to be bent.

Just look around you,

Though the sun may never shine brighter,

It’d never fail to wake up each day,

Let me have more in this world,

Not just the rain and shine,

For after the shower,

Comes the colours to paint your life.

Let the after taste,

Light a smile,

The touch of today,

Bring fresh hope,

And the tip of tomorrow,

Trigger a better day.

Look at these clenched hands,

Open and release them,

And as the sand is washed away,

Open up to receive the impossible. -28.05.06
