The Sands Of Time

The sand feels grainy against my hands but I don't mind.It becomes wet as soon as the water touches it.The water feels cool against my skin.I extend my feet deeper into the water . I turn and look around . There is just an old couple on my far right and two little young children somewhat to my left . I suppose the children might be their grandchildren or something . The old man has his arm around the old woman and they both are holding wine glasses .They were enjoying the beautiful sunset . The water turns from a shade of blue to orange.The children on the other side were building a sandcastle and then they must have thought it was tedious work and so now they are running around the beach enjoying and laughing .I looked back at the sun slowly dipping into the horizon.The light breeze blew my hair into circles . I felt a chill run down my spine.It was time for me to go. I looked around only to find the beach empty .The couple and children were nowhere to be seen . I thought about it and knew what this meant as I slowly walked back to my beach house. The children symbolised us when we were young,our lives filled with joy ,laughter and happiness devoid of responsibilities leading a carefree life. The old couple symbolised us when we become old , happy yet sad , having no regrets ,accomplished everything in life and spending our last moments with the ones we love waiting for death. I am in my prime now between these two phases of my life . I looked back at the sun one last time before it completely went into hiding until tomorrow .The water was calm and serene .I would be back here waiting ,waiting for you to return ,waiting for that perfect ending I've always dreamed of.

Love Or Something Like It

I wondered whether it would ever come back . I knew it was a one time thing. But then it didn't feel like that before. It felt different and when I say different, I mean the good kind of different.I mean I've felt it since I was a kid and that was for my mother.Then I've felt it in high school with so many different people that I completely lost count after a while . None of them ever returned it so I guess none of them deserved it from me in the beginning. But once it finds you, I truly hope you never let it go because once you lose it , you might never find it again . On one hand ,you have these people spending all their lives without ever finding it and on the other hand you have those people who find it right under their noses but are just too stupid to realise it. Then there are those people ,who are the luckiest beings on Earth to have found it .Then there are people like me who find it once but are too careless or stupid or dumb enough to lose it .I'm sad but that doesn't mean I won't enjoy my life doing all things that I want to do . You get only one life and you might never get one back again unless you believe in reincarnation .I'm confident that I'll find it again somewhere along the way . I just hope it's kinda soon before I lose hope or my sanity for that matter.
Love sure is a funny feeling. It's what makes us all a little crazy and do those spontaneous things that we would never have done if we were not in love. Love is like the blood that rushes in our veins and breathes life into our body . Love is what a mother feels for a child when she carries him and what a father feels ,the very first time he holds his baby in his arms. Love is when the young boy gives his last piece of chocolate to the little girl ,crying because she fell down an hurt herself.
Love is a beautiful thing and if your from planet Earth and don't know what love is ,well my friend no offence but I would suggest you jump off a cliff .Get out there and find love or something like it while you still can !
