You are...

by Sam Harty

______________________

You are golden sand,

I try to hold you in my hand

but you slip away

through clasped fingers,

but after you go

the feeling always lingers.

--

You are warm sunshine,

I feel you touch me

and warm me so.

But night always comes

and you always go.

--

You are a raging ocean,

your currents run so deep.

When I ride your waves

I feel the pulse of your flow

so intensely I could weep.

--

You are a clock upon the wall,

your hands tell the time.

I want to stop

and live in this moment

making you forever mine.
