To the End

Grain by grain life is engulfed by the crashing waves of time. On a constant voyage seeking for an ideal shore, yet another body is wrecked by the deathly song of sirens. Like a seagull, the soul hovers with wings half wet and half dry. Date: 11/16/2017

Too often we become lost in life while looking for the things we can never find... There is a lot of wisdom in your words and all of us can learn something from them... Very well written!

Very deep, philosophical as Silent said below Afzal. It's very evocative of life and I can imagine a Light House sending out a beacon...Maria
