Sandcastles from Skywriting by Zachary Cale

Castles carved out of sand now collapsed
Castles of what used to be
Reflections of time well spent, time long past
Reflections standing on the sea

I feel the ebb and the flow of the tide
I feel it’s pull and release
Like a love sometimes low, sometimes high
Like a love can be

And every day I see the flash
A lifetime caught in photograph
Monuments to all we had
Swept away with the sand

Love me now while I’m here, while we have the time
Love me now and I’ll love you
Never mind tomorrow’s cold crazy lies
Never mind what can’t hold you

And every day I see the flash
A lifetime caught in photograph
Monuments to all we had
Swept away with the sand
