54


    Footsteps in sand stepped


    A fortune withheld, a future kept


    Legends of an old land


    Blurred and ripped


    Sunken ships


    Lifelong trip


    Asleep by sun walk by the moon


    Time out of time much too soon


    Time within time


    Within mine


    Myths of a time


    Legends from a man


    Will of a boy


    To which I stand


    Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more.


    Each night walked a wish to stop


    Begged forward


    Pulled forward


    Stopped yet again


    It’s time to move again.


    Questions come in droves


    Answers, too, but not the right ones


    Old ones


    Wrong ones. Long ones, unneeded.


    Answers emptied into the sand. Thoughts bled to the grain


    The first rain


    The second pain


    No longer a phantom.


    The sun burns the sky longer each day.


    Sand Sand Sand Sand Sand


    And


    Halfway there


    Only I don’t know it


    Twice as long half the night


    Half the night twice the light


    Red orbed god like stare


    Knows I’m there


    Knows


    A figure in the horizon come into view


    Hope alights anew


    Faster I run


    Father speaks faster


    I oblige. I run. I run.


    Finally.
