REALIZATION

REALIZATION 

By the Sea
I stood
The waves
Came and 
Went
Kissing 
My feet...

I sighed
Lost to
The feel...

Overhead
The clouds
Ran 
A race
While the sun
Slowly
Hid
His face!

It was drawing
To a close
The day...

A pang 
Of pain
I felt...
So deep
It was
So profound
I shivered
Alone!

Time, please 
Slow down
I begged...
Not ever
Wanting to
Lose
All I care
About...

Then the 
Eagle
Called 
From high
Over
My whole...

It spoke
To me 
Somehow
And I 
Realized 
That I need
Not fear
The passing 
Of time and 
Loss
For before
Too long 
I also
Shall be gone!
