The Sandcasle


She looked at the incoming waves and said silent prayers,
Her sandcastle dreams turned terrifying nightmares,
The waves crashed and destroyed them unaware,
They looked down and laughed at her without a care.

They often told, her dreams were make-believe,
The vision she knew, would never conceive,
The dreams turned blurry, yet she would fail to worry,
As the waves came crashing, she continued in a hurry.


In the fading lights, they chuckled while she toiled,
Her fingers scarred, clothes wet and soiled,
As she struggled in pain, her sand castle emerged again,
She passed her test, they had battled her in vain...
