The sands of time
Don’t stop for anyone
Though sometimes
We all wish they did

All those words lost
Never spoken
All the times
Never forgotten
Hanging as portraits in the hallway of memory

Irony spares no one
Tragedy’s never far behind
Both love to strike
When we want them least

It all comes crashing down
One simple question
Carries more weight than an entire epic
And yet remains so innocent

Irony and tragedy
They are here
Again

Know that the weight will never be gone
But neither will the memories
Neither will the spirit
And neither will I

I thought I had already commented on this... But seeing that my comment isn't here, it means I must be mistaken, and I'm *very* sorry that I didn't comment before.

It's so touching, sweet, and sad all at once. I love the imagery in this poem. It really is a beautiful poem... you did a wonderful job.

That's when I grabbed the oven mitt.

Wah!!!! **Sniffles** Thanks so much, your poem is wonderful. Sweet and tragic all at the same time. **Huggles** It means so much to me that you did this.

Anyway you look, anyway you talk it over.
It's easier to let it slip out of your mind.
But it rips your heart out.
Then it kicks your head in.
Just give him one more chance,
Try to see the beauty in his world.
