Sands of Time

Sands of Time    
Just thoughts within intellectual lines      
As we are born      
So, shall we die      
Plans made in advance to soar to the Heavenly sky      
Do you ever question why you’re here      
An earthy existence with a limited amount of good cheer      
      
Scared to live      
Afraid to die      
Once we get sick… silent prayers, numerous whys      
Lived a good life      
Unite as the Bible says, man and wife      
Kids if you choose      
That beautiful policy in life, surely you can’t lose      
       
The doctrine of Heavenly laws      
So misconstrued      
The good must wait for their pie in the sky      
The wicked having a great time down here, does not even bat a guilty eye      
       
It’s not what one would call total bliss      
Then you wait for a crown of glory from living legit      
Die and then find out, it was all lies, just bullshit      
Generation of healing hands      
For woman and man      
Is it not enough, I ask      
Soul goes on, yet the body on earth will never last      
Hoping for redemption for a sinful past      
       
I advised you I’m locked out    
Therefore, I have inquired I must yell and shout about    
I pray daily, maybe God will lend me his ear and listen    
Is it the erotic side of my nature that heavenly hinders me    
Gift of words given at an early age    
School plays, theater in college, words delivered with confidence on stage    
Never once passed up the church offering plate    
Yet, on my knees still questioning my fate

Knees I pray      
Until I hear the words, well done, my knees I shall stay      
Answers given as I finally wobble to stand      
Mind, Body, Soul, and Spirit in sequence to conquer the mental lands      
From my Queen’s crown to you and yours      
Love given in all its entities from the stars, the moon, the heavens above, casting down to the east coast shores
