Church Breezes

~time is the ultimate teacher, unfortunately i kills all of its students~
my footprints indent the sand as i hike towards the structure, darkened by the neglect of human care and the love of the ocean waves that lap against it, but she stands tall for it is her time to leave, and as my footprints indented in the soft sand are greeted by those loving, caring waves they disappear, i look back for her and all is new and the waves begins to embrace the church once more
