Sand in a Glass

...to set it right
We met that night
With summer wind blowing
Over dunes at dusk...
Just when the stars start showing...

Strong in her spirit
On the sand she lit
She imparted her secrets
We shared the joy shared between two
Our love there we did beget

Her wind tossed hair
Our love alone to share
Time, wicked time, grew fleet wings
We mingled together
...and she told me things

Many ages passed
Doomed, our love wouldn't last
In rolled the grey, cruel sea
Covered us both and ran back to its bed
And took my love away from me
