Castles Of Sand

I built my life on the love all surrounding But everything then seemed to slowly go wrong, Without a foundation the cracks started forming Too late for mending, the damage too strong. I built my life more on hope than by foresight I kept on believing whatever must be, And battered by forces I had no protection Castles of sand slowly washed to the sea. I built my life on the land I thought steady But then it did crumble right there where I stood, And then in my weakness I felt I was sinking No one to save me, for nobody could. I built my life with such dreams of the future And one full of joy lasting eternally, But I was mistaken and now I have nothing Castles of sand slowly washed to the sea. I built my life on the hope of adventure But years passed me by and I stayed in one place, I thought I could sail on the wave tops before me Swamped by the ocean, I sank without trace. I built my life thinking I would be rescued I called for so long but no one heard my plea, Not seeming to care they just left me to drown there Castles of sand slowly washed to the sea.
