In the Sand

between the grains of sand all my dreams shattered apart a cup of my coffee spilled in between dissolved between the salty waves disappeared just like a lost dream between the grains of sand a lost life so things seem no matter how hard I hold on everything from between my fingers slip just like sand grains lost between life's sea waves in endless vain one thing that would remain that would be pain

I love the beach so you talking about sand and grains of sand makes me thing of summers I spent watching the ocean sitting on a beach towel somewhere at the Jersey Shore. Sand in my toes and needing to shower afterwards because. Sand also makes me think of a timer and Time in general.
