Lessons of Time

A test of time
Provides a glimpse
Of secrets hidden
In brokens limbs

We march to lessons
Not yet learned
lost in discovery
Of hearts that yearn.

A soap box once
To stand upon
Now sits empty
On the lawn

Boundaries strong
they mark a line
Drawn with sand
that moves not binds

Our thoughts made up
Of last years crime
We fail to forgive
The hurts we mime.

A broken heart
finds comfort in
a soul that's lost
Its self to sin
