Sands of Time

I know we've met before
On the distant shores of time
The tides were higher then
Our smiles were wider then
We were wind and sea
The heavens within our reach
Though we never did see
So content we were, on our little beach

How changed from your former selves
Now reduced to shell
You who held the power of the sky 
Now holding a breath 
And I whose frame stretched wide 
Now terrified of depth 

Will we ever find the place 
where we met 
And retrace our steps on the sand
To live without regret
Only time will tell.
