point and turn around

by Matthias L. - Capricorn

Watching the hourglass collide with the ground,
I wonder how it could break that silently, 
Pushed down violently by the changed balance 
Between future and past
Between friends and true intentions
I've never been sentient

Tears and the heart
And the shards on that new-formed coast 
Make the trip even harder
Traces in the sand, leading to an almost obscene
Ideal of sanity
I could add another color to the scenery
By just walking through it,
no second thoughts to be wasted
Towards memories unseen...
Preposterous.

Reason for writing:

    a lingering fear to lose a battle I don't want to fight
