Sacrifices Daily
Sacrifices daily, leave you less and less,
Pressure all around you , taken breath by breath,
Pieces of a puzzle, slowly put together,
Pieces of a puzzle, to be lost forever.
Dreams of frolicking in the sand,
Discarded like a beaten hand.
Sands of time have placed you here,
A land of lonely broken fear,
An enveloping pool of shattered tears,
Created gradually over years and years.
Keep present the ones that mean the most,
In the end, we'll make a toast,
To celebrate the times we've had,
Whether good, or mildly bad,
At least will have each others will,
When the sands of time stand still.
