The Shifting Sand
On the shifting sand of emotions
we have built our relationship:
a drifting oasis.
It shelters us and is secure
for the time being. But soon
it would move with the caravan
in search of the solid terrain
where foundation will be firm
but emotions would fossilize,
like those marble statues
that exhibit anatomical beauty
sans the vitality of life.
