THROUGH
THE SANDS OF TIME
Through
the sands of time
Where
we can be restricted with our lives
We
sail through time not knowing where we are
Not
knowing where it has gone
The
sands can sink beneath us
Drowning,
drowning us completely
The
sands of time has us captured
The
sand of time has us imprisoned
Bogged
down, bogging us down
Where
our sails can no long sail
Sail
in the fair winds
Stuck
in one direction going no where
Nowhere
to be free
Time
and motion stuck
Stuck
in a rut
Beached
like a war ship
A
war ship of the past
So,
so here in the present
Presenting
our fears, with no tears
What
can we do?
Is
there anything that we can do?
To
release all the pent up troubles
That
rolls; roll on the rocky rocks and seas
Can
we release the shackles that chain us?
And
take control of our emotions
Take
control of that helm
And
steer ourselves out of the murky waters
Into
calmer seas, into where we were before
Can
we steer ourselves from the rocky shores?
Life
steers us in different directions
But
are they the right ones?
The
true ones!
Can
you hear the inner voice?
Calling
you to come home
To
your true self
True
selves
I
can hear it calling you to come closer
To
stop drowning, drowning
So
let’s sail away and leave our troubles behind
