Unnamed

Risen from the earth.
I am born yet,
My soul is cracked,
Dry.

The wind Rages.
It never ceases.
Sunset to sunrise
It lashes my back.

My feet rooted
I will not be moved.
My shadow Dimishes
as I erode Day by day.

Made up of Memories
Thoughts and Experiences
The sands of time bind me
I am the sand in the hour glass.

Slowly My essence
Falls away.
It drops grain by grain.
I am half The man

The Wind of Life
takes me grain by grain.
I give myself
I never take.

The rain showers blessing.
I fall back to the soil.
Red as Blood
I am washed away.
