Scarlet Altar

Time's running out.

I tried to change my thoughts, and they once again returned to my day dreams. A name in the sand never lasts. The waves come in so fast and wash it way. They don't care. They know nothing of feelings. At a distance I see the sun rise towards the heavens. The clouds part making way for the mighty God paying homage to his greatness and worth. The sounds of the children laughing and the feel of happiness herald the sun's arrival.

But wait!. Why is it that I hear nothing?

Fear stains my memories as I reflect on this placid morning. I sit immobilized, waiting for Rage, Fury and Guilt to wrap me in their arms - consume me in their darkness. My soul being barred in a fashion most uncharecteristic of me. Are there answers in silence?. Or is the silence just you listening?. Can you hear what I'm not saying?

With the passage of time even unhappiness began to acquire a certain glow. Time was too fast. It forgot to take care of these unhealed wounds.It had too much of faith in this scarlet warrior. And here I am. Defeated.

Time's run out.
