The Shifting Sands Of Eternity

Reflecting on a past.... 
which I regret does not exist, 
while gazing into a future,
I know shall never be....

I recognize the time has come,,,, 
to surrender what could have been.... 
to the ever shifting sands,,,
of my eternity....

Dear Darrell, your poem is deeply filled with the struggle of reconciling with the past and embracing the uncertainty of the future. Your words capture the poignant realization of letting go of what could have been and surrendering to the fluidity of time. In this surrender lies the possibility of finding peace and acceptance within the ever-shifting sands of life's journey. This is an introspective reflection. - Blessings, Daniel
