love...is like sand
the tighter you hold...
the faster it slips away

to hold onto it forever...
Hold it gently,
but do not hold it too loosely
for it will blow away with the wind...

hold it close to your heart,
but use gentle hands.
Let others experience it,
hiding it from others will just
keep you isolated
don't let love
be washed away
like the waves
wash away the
sand each evening.

Love is like sand...
Hold it
with an open hand
