.:Sandcastle:.
Slowly my toes dug into the hot sands.
As they pulled me under I held out my hands
To the sky, and I pleaded for someone to see
That I could no longer live life lonely.

But these words fell on deaf years as I screamed,
And my hopes were all shattered like a foolish dream.
When the sands filled my eyes and my world all turned black
There was nobody there willing to bring me back.

Inside that sandcastle, trapped with my fears
And the heat quickly drying away all my tears,
I could feel no emotion. I was lost in regret,
Choking on memories I could not forget.

When you walked on that desert
It was stifling and bare,
But you kept pushing forward.
You knew something was there.
And the heat burned your feet,
And you sunk in the sands,
And you dug through the anguish until you grabbed my hand.

We rose to the sky, my pain falling away
under fiery sands where my grievances lay.
And I said all the right words I needed to say,
As I opened my eyes to a brand new day.

In that crystal blue sky streaked with purple and white
I found my destiny as you held me tight
And as day bled away into dark, stormy night
Our love filled the heavens with perpetual light.
