It's Amazing

It's amazing to find yourself Lost in a maze of emotion It's curious to be found Hanging upside-down Not knowing which way is up And therefore always falling on your face It's incredible to see How something simple Can grip you passionately Can clench you like sand Held in a fist, so it slowly trickles out Until there's nothing left of it And it leaves you drained It's astonishing to comprehend That some things always were Some things simply are And yet others will carry on This is none of those It is terminal, fleeting It lasts as long as I entertain it Try and grasp the sand But it slides through my fingers Leaving emptiness Loneliness A longing to belong It's amazing...
