Cast in thought
Eyes lost in the small fire
That gave him warmth
Weapons laid aside for the moment
His mind preying on all the years past
Back when his youth
Had carried hope
Hope that time had eroded
Through all the battles
Through all the triumphs such as they were
One need had glowed steadily
The love of one
Moments had risen
When his heart had sung
Only to find the song faded
Until it had dawned upon this cold chilled night
As he saw the falling sands of the hourglass
Framed in the embers
That sat before him
I can see it this time. A wonderful piece

for memory relives
forever it is...
