The curse of abrasive sands.

The depth 

of your caress

in the beginning

was insatiably deep,

but time brought on

tidal changes in passing.

I found myself alone

in your shallows, beached

in the sands of time;

your footprints disappearing,

and your love....

a mirage

now left in

my thinking.
