the way to Shore

in the land of burning sands,
the sun fiercly blazes
grains of sand that whisper stories we've spun
Yet, time is a traveller, moving on with the sun
the expanse of the horizon
I pause, I glance
what life had entailed, fading in a trance
the winds of Tomorrow whisper quietly, but sure
Carving new paths, I am reluctant to endorse
forever in flow, waves crashing against the shoreline
every lingering whisper, I no longer hold on
The Oceans of Time teaching me how to flow
beckoning brightly, the horizons so welcoming
the Land of Red holds tales to tell
What I've left behind, like footprints to sand
the yearn of the desert, beaches refrain
a whisper so comforting, I would never have known
in the landscape quite grand, paths may diverge
Each a ripple, united by sand
