Tide of thoughts

consciousness garners in a tide of thoughts
washing away all the castles of sand
we stand still and watch as it lashes the mind
a sea of the past and future
flooding the present behind

we admire the beautiful waves
dont wanna leave sight
but as soon as the waters recede
reality shows off the oceans might

we build embankments to thwart these thoughts
but they are weaker than sand
a slight peek into reality
and then the waves sweep over the land

we admire the beautiful waves
dont wanna leave sight
but as soon as the waters recede
reality shows off the oceans might
