ENATIONS:

In a beach-made castle . . . I
________________________________

alone now i stand
all i have known
has been washed away
by seas of time
and by rivers of tears.

slowly my false world
has been eaten away
and in sorrow i fled.
confusion filled my soul
yet the peace of others
i have been unable to know.

in desperation
i reached out
into the blackened sky,
yet not a hand
could i find, for there . . .

yes, there were no friends,
they i once knew,
but now i am alone,
and my sand-made castle
has gone.
